Full job description

We are seeking experienced Financial Auditors and Internal Auditors (Audit Seniors, Audit Managers, or Internal Audit Professionals) 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: $80/hr (prorated for the 45-minute task)

What You'll Do You'll complete a ~45-minute recorded AI-led video interview where you explain how you actually do your work in practice.

This interview will focus on:

  • How you define audit scope, assess risk, set materiality, and obtain planning approval
  • How you test transactions, balances, cash, and supporting documentation
  • How you evaluate control design, fraud risk, exceptions, and deficiencies
  • How you draft findings, agree remediation plans, and complete final reporting

You will be asked to explain workflows specifically within: engagement planning, risk assessment, evidence requests, transaction and balance testing, control evaluation, exception analysis, findings, and remediation follow-up.

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 external audit, internal audit, assurance, and internal controls
  • Direct, hands-on experience in engagement planning, risk assessment, evidence requests, transaction and balance testing, control evaluation, exception analysis, findings, and remediation follow-up
  • Experience making or influencing decisions related to scope, materiality, sample selection, control reliance, exception severity, deficiency classification, finding rating, and remediation expectations
  • Familiarity with tools such as: audit-management and workpaper platforms, GRC systems, ERP reports, confirmation portals, analytics tools, spreadsheets, issue trackers, and document portals
  • 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 relevant cross-functional 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.
