Quantitative Finance Forecasting Analyst (AI Training)

About The Role

What if your expertise in quantitative finance could directly shape how AI reasons about markets, models, and financial forecasts? We're looking for Quantitative Finance Forecasting Analysts to evaluate AI-generated predictive models and financial outputs — catching flawed assumptions, identifying data inconsistencies, and ensuring AI-driven forecasting is grounded in sound analytical logic.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No AI background required — just a strong command of quantitative finance, statistical reasoning, and model evaluation.

• Summarize expected market or company-level trends and performance scenarios in clear, structured formats
• Identify anomalies, inconsistencies, or errors within structured financial datasets
• Deliver findings using standardized evaluation frameworks and rubrics
• Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

• Solid background in quantitative finance, statistics, econometrics, or data analysis
• Sharp analytical thinker with strong reasoning around model logic, assumptions, and outputs
• Comfortable working with structured financial data and interpreting complex quantitative signals
• Detail-oriented and consistent — you notice when something doesn't add up
• Clear written communicator who can document findings concisely and precisely
• No prior AI experience required

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with Python, R, MATLAB, or other quantitative modeling tools
• Experience in financial modeling, risk analysis, or investment research
• Background in economics, actuarial science, or applied mathematics
• Prior exposure to model validation, backtesting, or quantitative research workflows

Why Join Us

• Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs
• Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
• Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
• Apply your quantitative expertise to directly improve how AI reasons about financial data
• Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
