Retail Trader — AI Training Contributor

About the Role

We're looking for active retail investors and everyday traders to contribute their real-world market knowledge to a cutting-edge AI research project. If you actively trade stocks, ETFs, crypto, or derivatives and know your way around a brokerage platform, your experience is exactly what we need.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role where your trading instincts and investment judgment directly shape how frontier AI systems understand retail investor behavior.

What You'll Do

  • Review and evaluate trading-related content, investor communications, and platform activity for accuracy and relevance
  • Label and annotate financial data with consistency and precision to support AI model training
  • Apply your real-world trading knowledge to assess how AI reasons about equities, ETFs, crypto, and broader market behavior
  • Provide structured written explanations of how retail investors approach risk, conviction, and trade execution
  • Help refine AI understanding of portfolio management strategies and market analysis techniques
  • Complete task-based assignments independently and on your own schedule

Who You Are

  • An active retail investor or trader with hands-on experience in stocks, ETFs, crypto, or derivatives
  • Familiar with major brokerage platforms such as Robinhood, Wealthsimple, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, eToro, Interactive Brokers, SoFi, or Webull
  • Up-to-date on current market trends and comfortable discussing how real investors think
  • Strong analytical judgment with the ability to explain your reasoning clearly in writing
  • Detail-oriented and able to follow structured labeling and annotation guidelines
  • Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
  • No prior AI or data annotation experience required

Nice to Have

  • Experience with options, futures, or other derivatives
  • Background in personal finance, investment research, or financial analysis
  • Familiarity with technical or fundamental analysis methodologies
  • Experience across multiple asset classes or international markets

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects that are shaping the future of financial technology
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule, on your terms
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and the ability to work from anywhere
  • Put your trading knowledge to work in a meaningful new way
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
