Identify operational inconsistencies, errors, or process gaps in AI-generated content
Evaluate the quality and correctness of trading-related AI outputs using structured rubrics
Complete task-based assignments independently on your own schedule

Who You Are

Experienced in trading operations, brokerage ops, or financial operations
Naturally detail-oriented with a precise, methodical approach to evaluating workflows
Comfortable following structured, rule-based evaluation frameworks
Able to communicate complex operational concepts clearly in writing
Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
No prior AI or tech experience required

Nice to Have

Exposure to market structure, order management systems, or trade execution workflows
Familiarity with front-to-back trade lifecycle processes
Background in compliance, risk operations, or post-trade processing
Experience with financial data review or operational quality assurance

Why Join Us

Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and financial organizations
