About this role

Role Overview

Quantitative Finance Researchers apply advanced mathematical finance, risk modeling, and quantitative methods to evaluate AI-generated outputs and create expert-level training data that improves AI understanding of quantitative finance research and methodology. This is a remote, part-time, project-based engagement you can take on alongside other commitments. No prior AI experience is required.

Key Responsibilities
  • Review and evaluate AI-generated responses for technical accuracy, relevance, and adherence to quantitative finance standards.
  • Produce expert-level training examples, annotations, and corrections based on current academic and research practices.
  • Apply domain knowledge in mathematical finance, risk modeling, computational methods, and market microstructure to assess model outputs.
  • Provide clear, well-documented feedback to AI research teams in an asynchronous, independent working style.
Qualifications
  • PhD or Master in Quantitative Finance, Mathematical Finance, Financial Engineering, or a closely related field.
  • Research background or coursework in areas such as computational finance, mathematical finance, portfolio management, risk management, statistical finance, trading, or market microstructure.
  • Familiarity with arXiv, especially the Quantitative Finance (q-fin) repository.
  • Strong written communication skills, attention to detail, and ability to work independently and asynchronously with research teams.
Work Terms
  • Employment type: Part-time, contract, project-based.
  • Location: Fully remote, with a flexible, asynchronous schedule and no minimum hour requirement.
  • Typical active participation: Most contributors work approximately 5 to 20 hours per week when engaged on an active project.
  • Placement depends on current project needs; contributors may be considered for future projects as new needs arise.
  • This engagement is ongoing and project-based, allowing you to participate alongside other professional or academic commitments.
Compensation
