Full description

This role is for one of our clients

Compensation: $80 - $120 per hour

We are collaborating with a leading AI lab to engage technical accounting and SEC reporting specialists. You'll translate real technical-accounting and external-reporting work into structured, high-quality training data that teaches AI to reason through complex ASC judgments.

Focus Areas

Technical accounting & external / SEC reporting — with deep, hands-on exposure to the standards (ASC 606 revenue, 842 leases, 718 stock comp, 805 business combinations).

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

• Design realistic scenarios from your work — technical accounting memos, technical accounting schedules, SEC filings (10-K / 10-Q), footnotes & disclosures, and applying new/complex ASC standards to transactions

• Review and compare AI-generated technical outputs for standards-accurate conclusions and defensible support

• Provide clear written feedback that improves how AI reasons about technical accounting

• Collaborate asynchronously with the research team

Ideal Qualifications

• Big 4 or public-company technical accounting / SEC reporting background

• Deep, hands-on ASC exposure (606, 842, 718, 805) — actual technical-accounting depth, not general audit experience

• CPA

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field

• Strong written communication and attention to detail

Application Process

• Submit a resume or a short summary of your technical accounting experience

• Complete a short form on your practice area, specialties, and certifications

• Selected applicants may complete a brief sample task

We consider all qualified applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics and provide reasonable accommodations upon request.

Contract and Payment Terms

• You will be engaged as an independent contractor.

• This is a fully remote role that can be completed on your own schedule.

• Projects can be extended, shortened, or concluded early depending on needs and performance.

• Your work will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institution.

• Payments are weekly on Stripe or Wise based on services rendered.

• Please note: We are unable to support H1-B or STEM OPT candidates at this time.
