Job Description: Remote Accounting, Audit, and Tax subject matter experts needed to train AI; 10+ hours per week recommended starting point. Backgrounds in public accounting, corporate accounting and/or tax, audit, advisory, or similar backgrounds are all great for this role.

Contributors use their subject matter expertise to evaluate, annotate, and improve AI-generated responses on accounting, tax, and financial reporting topics, and design realistic professional tasks (scenarios, supporting files, grading rubrics) used to train and test AI systems. This is not a traditional accounting role — no client work, no month-end close, no deadlines — but a structured, flexible engagement putting accounting knowledge toward AI development.

Responsibilities

• Review and evaluate AI-generated accounting responses for accuracy, clarity, and professional appropriateness
• Annotate and rank model outputs to guide AI training
• Write expert-level answers to accounting questions as training examples
• Flag errors, misconceptions, or ambiguous outputs and provide corrective guidance
• Design and build realistic task scenarios from professional experience, including prompts, supporting files, and grading rubrics
• Run tasks against AI models and iterate based on expert reviewer feedback
• Follow detailed written instructions precisely (formatting, upload requirements, etc.)
• Maintain consistent quality and throughput for the full sprint

Qualifications

• Available for 10+ hours/week recommended starting point; more hours available if desired
• 5 to 7+ years of accounting or tax experience (public accounting, corporate finance or tax, public accounting tax, advisory or similar)
• CPA or EA preferred but not required
• Strong written communication skills
• Comfortable working independently in a remote, self-directed setting
• Careful reader of instructions; receptive to feedback and revisions
• Baseline tech literacy (cloud tools, browser profiles, desktop app installs, file conversion/zipping)
• Based in the United States
• General understanding of LLMs/AI landscape

Compensation & Terms

• Must pass a skills assessment (3-4 hours, unpaid; no AI/LLM assistance permitted to complete the assessment)
• Paid on a regular cadence; contract position
• Fully remote (work from anywhere in the US, Canada, or the UK)
• Flexible project-based work
