Australia MERCOR Full time US$100,000 - US$150,000 per year

1. Role Overview

Mercor is partnering with a leading AI research group to develop finance-specific knowledge systems for advanced AI agents. We are seeking finance experts with strong AI prompting capabilities to create structured guides that transform general-purpose AI into domain-specialized financial tools. This is a project-based opportunity ideal for professionals with both deep finance expertise and practical experience using AI for workflow enhancement. If you are not skilled at working with AI models, this project will not be a good fit. We are only looking for experts from the US, Canada, England, Australia, and New Zealand.

2. Key Responsibilities

  • Translate complex finance concepts into AI-readable formats
  • Prompt, test, and refine AI agents for improved domain-specific performance
  • Create reusable instructions, templates, and best practices for AI agents
  • Potential to collaborate asynchronously with AI researchers on validation and design

3. Ideal Qualifications

  • 2+ years of experience in finance, investment banking, private equity, or hedge fund experience preferred
  • Strong practical understanding of financial modeling, transactions, or research workflows
  • Demonstrated expertise using and prompting AI tools (e.g., GPT, Claude, etc.)
  • Ability to write clear, structured content for both human and AI consumption
  • Self-directed, highly organized, and able to work independently

4. More About the Opportunity

  • Remote and asynchronous — set your own hours
  • Expected time commitment: minimum 10 hours/week
  • Project-based engagement over the next couple weeks, with significant opportunity for expansion or movement to other projects with high performance if requested
  • Opportunity to shape how AI systems learn and reason in the finance domain

5. Compensation & Contract Terms

  • $100–150/hour (most experts will start at the lower range, but will quickly have the opportunity to make up to $150/hr with high performance)
  • Independent contractor classification
  • Weekly payments via Stripe Connect

6. Application Process

  • We're looking to get started as soon as possible so we'll be following up with the top applicants as quickly as we can
