In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. You will be designing and producing expert-authored evaluation tasks that reflect the authentic complexity of securities and commodities markets. This includes engaging with substantial and varied datasets—such as CSVs, PDFs, spreadsheets, and technical documentation—to pose rigorous, multi-step problems that challenge how AI interprets, reasons, and acts in genuine market scenarios.

• Author comprehensive rubrics of 35+ items to systematically assess agent performance in market judgment, compliance sensitivity, and client communication accuracy.
• Ensure the complexity and authenticity of tasks reflect true-to-life, day-to-day operations rather than simplified scenarios.
• Collaborate with technical teams to clarify task intent and refine benchmarking standards.

Preferred Qualifications

• Minimum of 4 years’ experience at a brokerage, banking, or trading platform with significant compliance-driven workflow exposure.
