United States

USD 105-105 / hour

Posted on Jul 3, 2026

We are seeking experienced FP&A modeling and financial-analysis professionals (or strategic finance analysts with model ownership) to provide expert insight as part of a project for our AI Marketplace. No preparation required — just your real-world experience.

This is a one-time, paid, project-based interview engaged on a contract basis— not a full-time role.

Location: U.S.-based experts only

Engagement: One-time, project-based interview

Work Type: Remote

Estimated rate: $105/hour (prorated for the 30-minute task)

What You’ll Do

You’ll complete a ~30-minute recorded AI-led video interview where you explain how you actually do your work in practice.

This interview will focus on:

  • Structuring driver-based models with clear inputs, assumptions, logic, outputs, and review points
  • Validating assumptions with business owners and reconciling models to actuals and other finance sources
  • Stress-testing models through sensitivities, scenarios, breakpoints, and downside cases
  • Maintaining auditable, reusable, version-controlled models as assumptions change over time

You will be asked to explain workflows specifically within: financial-model build, assumption validation, sensitivity testing, model review, version control, and actuals reconciliation workflows.

You should only apply if you can confidently walk through these areas step-by-step based on your own experience and respond to AI-led interview questions with depth, clarity, and real-world examples.

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years in FP&A modeling, strategic finance, business analytics, or corporate finance
  • Direct, hands-on experience in financial-model build, assumption validation, sensitivity testing, model review, version control, and actuals reconciliation workflows
  • Experience making or influencing decisions related to driver selection, assumption ownership, model complexity, review sufficiency, scenario framing, and when a model is reliable enough to use
  • Familiarity with tools such as: Excel, Google Sheets, Anaplan, Adaptive Planning, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, Python optional
  • Strong ability to clearly explain workflows, decisions, and reasoning
  • Experience owning or directly executing these workflows in a real production environment
  • Experience working in a cross-functional finance, strategy, treasury, investor-relations, or business-partnering environment

About the Interview

The interview is designed to elicit step-by-step explanations of real workflows and decision-making processes, with an emphasis on detailed, experience-based responses rather than high-level summaries.

This is a project-based engagement. Selected participants will be paid for completing a recorded AI-led video interview; hourly rates are estimates based upon anticipated time of completion. Participants will control their own schedule, provide their own tools to complete the interview, and may participate in other opportunities as they choose.

Once you complete the interview, we’ll send your video recording and transcript, along with AI-generated insights, to the internal research team and AI lab partner. This data will be used to generate a structured list of tasks associated with your profession and for AI model improvement.
