Job description

Category: Finance, Accounting & Economic AI Pay: $70-$90 / hr Location: Remote - US-eligible Contractor

Equity Research Analyst / Associate is a remote review track for evaluating AI outputs across finance and risk workflows. Reviewers grade calculations, narrative reasoning, and policy adherence; flag compliance and reconciliation issues; and document the correct treatment so the modeling team can train on it.

Why this role matters

Finance and risk workflows leave no room for fuzzy reasoning. AuraOne uses experienced finance-and-risk professionals to grade AI outputs the way an audit reviewer would - with citations, severity tags, and the corrected calculation alongside the original.

Responsibilities

• Review AI outputs against current finance and risk standards, regulations, and firm policy for Equity Research Analyst / Associate assignments.
• Re-perform calculations and flag rounding, classification, or treatment errors.
• Tag compliance, reconciliation, and disclosure issues with structured severity scores.
• Capture the corrected workpaper or narrative so the modeling team can train on it.
• Adjudicate disputed treatments against published standards or firm guidance.
• Maintain reviewer-quality scores in inter-rater calibration cycles.

Qualifications

• Direct working experience with finance and risk on real engagements, transactions, or audits for Equity Research Analyst / Associate work.
• A CPA, CFA, or ACA. A comparable credential or equivalent applied experience also works.
• Comfort applying multi-page rubrics consistently across long batches.
• Clear written reasoning that cites standards, regulations, or firm policy.
• Reliable async availability for at least 10 hours per week.

Example tasks

• Re-perform a finance and risk calculation produced by a model and flag any rounding or classification errors.
• Grade a model's narrative reasoning on a complex transaction and rate the citation quality.
• Adjudicate a disputed treatment between two reviewers using current standards.
• Audit a 25-row batch for rubric consistency and report drift to the program lead.

Nice to have

• Big Four, bulge-bracket, or in-house controller / risk experience.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted close, audit, or risk tooling and its failure modes.
• Bilingual experience for cross-jurisdiction reviews.
