Alignerr

AI Expert - Finance Contractor
Remote (Global) $60 – $120/hr July 15, 2026

Job description

Alignerr is building a dataset of expert tasks that train and evaluate advanced AI agents on real enterprise work. As a Task Author for the Finance / Accounting role, you will design and calibrate accounting reconciliation tasks with numerically verifiable answers — billing versus revenue, payments to invoices, margin reports — that genuinely challenge a capable AI agent while remaining objectively scorable.

Key Responsibilities

  • Author realistic task prompts centered on accounting reconciliation: matching payments to invoices, reconciling billing against recognized revenue, and analyzing margin reports.
  • Write scoring rubrics that specify exact numerical outcomes and the reasoning steps required to reach them.
  • Set up task environments with the financial data, documents, and system states needed to replicate a realistic accounting scenario.
  • Solve each task yourself to validate that the numbers work and the rubric is correct.
  • Calibrate task difficulty — adjust data complexity, ambiguity in source documents, or required reasoning steps until the task reliably challenges the model to the intended degree.
  • Review and correct AI-drafted task prompts or rubrics when provided.

Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience as an accountant, finance analyst, or in a closely related role.
  • Strong, precise numerical reasoning and demonstrated ability to work through multi-step reconciliation problems.
  • Solid knowledge of revenue recognition principles, matching rules, and standard accounting workflows.
  • Ability to define verifiable correctness criteria — exact figures, reconciled balances, or documented variance explanations.
  • Comfortable working with financial documents, spreadsheets, and accounting system outputs.
  • Iterative mindset: willing to test and refine tasks until difficulty and gradability are both right.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in manufacturing, industrial, or enterprise B2B finance environments.
  • Familiarity with ERP or accounting platforms (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, QuickBooks Enterprise).
