See how frontier AI is built, using the deal instincts you already have.
The labs building frontier AI models have the compute. What they need is the judgment of people who've actually done the work: the reasoning behind a valuation, a financing decision, a pitch recommendation, and the standards that hold up in regulated industries.
Who We Are
Aptura, a team from Lazard, Partners Group and McKinsey. We work with frontier AI labs to bring real investment banking and private equity expertise into how their models reason.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What The Project Involves
- Client-quality deliverables across IB workflows: valuation and operating models, pitch and teaser materials, comps and precedent analyses, and decks, built so a model can learn from them
- End-to-end deal tasks rather than one-off questions, built out in full (a full M&A or financing process is one example among many)
- The same standards you'd apply to real deal work, including regulated-industry expectations
Why do it
- See how frontier AI is developed from the inside
- Stay close to where finance is heading
- Designed to work alongside your existing job

Timing and logistics
- Fully remote and project-based, on your own schedule
- Around 15 hours a week, completely flexible on when
- Rolling cycles, so you can start soon and step back between them
- We'll get back to you within 2 days: one short call, then into a first piece of work
Who We're Looking For
3 to 7 years in investment banking with real deal experience and closed transactions behind you.
