Job description

Expert Contributor - Certified Public Accountant (CPA)

Task-Based Independent Contractor Opportunity

Overview

We're looking for CPA-credentialed accounting and finance experts who can design and solve challenging, real-world reasoning tasks that test the limits of advanced AI systems. You'll create high-quality accounting, auditing, tax, and financial analysis problems, develop rigorous solutions, and help identify exactly where models fall short in financial reasoning. The focus is on professional practice-level difficulty, regulatory precision, and reproducible evaluation. If you've got a knack for building tricky multi-step financial scenarios and can spot where the numbers don't add up, this is your kind of opportunity.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design complex, multi-step accounting, auditing, and tax reasoning problems with precise, fully worked solutions.
  • Evaluate AI-generated financial reasoning and identify where models produce incorrect calculations, misapply standards, or reach flawed conclusions.
  • Create scenarios spanning financial reporting (US GAAP/IFRS), tax compliance and planning, audit procedures, managerial accounting, and forensic accounting.
  • Develop reproducible evaluation criteria and grading rubrics for each financial problem.
  • Review and critique competing solution approaches across multi-turn evaluation sessions.
  • Collaborate asynchronously with the project team on problem calibration, regulatory accuracy, and quality standards.


Required Qualifications

  • Active CPA license in good standing.
  • 3+ years of professional experience in public accounting, corporate finance, tax advisory, or audit.
  • Deep fluency in US GAAP, IFRS, and/or federal/state tax code, with the ability to create multi-step analytical problems and produce precise, fully worked solutions.
  • Strong review instincts with the ability to identify subtle financial errors, misapplied accounting standards, and evaluate competing approaches.
  • Proficiency with accounting software and tools (e.g., QuickBooks, SAP, Oracle, or similar ERP systems).


Preferred Qualifications

  • Master's degree in Accounting, Finance, Taxation, or a related discipline.
  • Background in one or more of: Big 4 or mid-tier public accounting, corporate controllership, tax planning and compliance, internal audit, or forensic accounting.
  • Experience with CPA exam preparation content development or university-level accounting instruction.
  • Familiarity with data analytics tools used in modern accounting (e.g., Alteryx, Tableau, Power BI, or ACL).
  • Experience evaluating AI-generated financial reasoning or working with AI-assisted accounting tools.
  • Additional certifications such as CMA, CIA, CFE, or CGMA are a plus.
