About the Opportunity
This opportunity is for experienced Investment Banking professionals interested in contributing to advanced AI research and evaluation projects. The role focuses on evaluating how effectively AI systems perform real-world investment banking work. Rather than producing traditional banking deliverables, you'll apply your professional expertise to define what excellent work looks like, develop task-specific evaluation criteria, and assess completed work samples using rigorous, well-reasoned judgment.
Responsibilities
- Design precise, task-specific evaluation criteria for real-world banking deliverables, including financial models, valuation analyses, pitch decks, CIMs, deal memoranda, and board or investment committee materials.
- Evaluate and score AI-generated and human-created work samples against established criteria.
- Provide detailed written justifications explaining the rationale behind each score.
- Apply consistent, evidence-based judgment to ensure evaluations are reproducible and defensible.
- Assess work for financial accuracy, analytical rigor, commercial judgment, presentation quality, and adherence to professional banking standards.
- Incorporate structured feedback from senior reviewers and continuously refine evaluation standards.
