Sell-Side Equity Analyst for AI Model Evaluation

Role Overview

Apply sell-side equity research judgment to create forecasting and research data that helps evaluate and improve AI models on real financial analysis. You will assess, using only information available at a defined point in time, when a named analyst is likely to publish after a catalyst and what their research update is likely to say.

Key Responsibilities

• Forecast the timing and content of a named analyst''s post-catalyst equity research note.
• Develop an expected published view using filings, earnings results, transcripts, estimates, valuation, and ratings.
• Document the internal research workflow that shapes how and when an equity research report is produced.
• Review and grade model-generated analyses against your professional standard.

Qualifications

• Former lead sell-side equity analyst or highly senior research associate with personal experience publishing post-catalyst research in the relevant sector.
• Deep knowledge of filings, earnings, transcripts, estimates, valuation, ratings, and the internal process behind equity research publications.
• Typically 8+ years of directly relevant experience, or compelling evidence of equivalent performance.
• Experience with Institutional Investor-ranked teams or leading research franchises, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, Bank of America, Citi, UBS, Barclays, Bernstein, Jefferies, and Wolfe Research, is a strong initial signal but not required.
• Former colleagues, direct coverage rivals, and senior buy-side consumers of a named analyst''s work are particularly relevant backgrounds. Direct experience and work-sample performance determine qualification.

Work Terms

• Hourly independent contractor engagement.
• Maintain strict point-in-time discipline for every task. Reason only from the stated evidence cutoff, without hindsight, data leakage, confidential information, or material non-public information.

Compensation

$150 to $250 per hour.
