Rates Trading Strategy AI Evaluator

You will help improve AI systems that generate and assess algorithmic trading strategies. Your work will involve applying rates-market judgment to decide whether model outputs are realistic, viable, and consistent with trading desk practices.

You will review both the strategies and the reasoning behind them, then explain your conclusions in clear written and verbal feedback. The work is remote and supports project milestones on a flexible contractor basis.

• Evaluate AI-generated strategies involving interest rate swaps, swaptions, Treasury futures, Eurodollar and SOFR products, and repo instruments.
• Assess whether strategies are realistic, workable in live markets, and aware of relevant risks.
• Identify where AI recommendations differ from actual trading desk practices.
• Recommend improvements to the accuracy and sophistication of AI-generated trading logic.
• Explain complex rates-market insights clearly for AI training work.

This role is suited to someone with professional rates trading experience who can judge quantitative or systematic strategies in real-world market conditions. English fluency is needed for written and verbal discussions.

AI training is the human work behind systems that learn from examples, including reviewing model outputs and rating their quality. People with specialized experience help make those systems more accurate by applying professional judgment that models cannot reliably provide on their own.
