fact-check technical accounting claims; write high-quality explanations and model solutions that demonstrate correct methods; and rate and compare multiple responses based on correctness and reasoning quality.

Important:

There is no immediate project for this role; however, if qualified, you will be among the first experts we reach out to when relevant opportunities arise. This will also provide you with access to future projects available through our expert network.

• Develop AI Training Content:
  Create detailed prompts and gold‑standard accounting outputs (journal entries, explanations, close checklists, reconciliations logic, scenario analyses).
• Optimize AI Performance:
  Evaluate and rank AI responses to improve correctness, clarity, and adherence to GAAP/IFRS and best practices.
• Ensure Model Integrity:
  Test AI outputs for inaccuracies, misleading guidance, unsafe assumptions, and bias; validate reliability across business scenarios.

• 5+ years of professional experience in accounting (public accounting, industry, shared services, or advisory).
• Strong command of core accounting areas: revenue/expense recognition, accruals, prepaid/deferred items, fixed assets, inventory basics, payroll basics, and taxes awareness.
• Proven ability to prepare and review journal entries, account reconciliations, and month-end close deliverables with attention to auditability.
• Solid understanding of financial statements (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow) and common classification/presentation issues.
• Familiarity with internal controls concepts (segregation of duties, approvals, documentation standards) and audit readiness.
• Comfortable evaluating answers for internal consistency (sign conventions, debits/credits, timing, cut‑off, supporting schedules) and business realism.
• Minimum C1 English proficiency with the ability to write clear, structured explanations and follow detailed guidelines.
• Reliable, self‑directed, and able to deliver consistent quality in an hourly, remote contractor workflow across time zones.
