Posted on Jun 30, 2026

We are seeking experienced Accounting-policy and technical accounting project professionals (or senior managers with standard-adoption 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: $170/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:

  • New standard impact assessment, scoping, transition method, data gaps, system readiness, and disclosure impacts
  • Adoption project planning, milestones, dual reporting, control changes, and stakeholder coordination
  • Preparing and presenting technical positions to auditors for review and challenge
  • Coordinating downstream impacts with FP&A, IR, legal, tax, and the broader close/audit timeline

You will be asked to explain workflows specifically within: new accounting-standard adoption, impact assessment, auditor alignment, cross-functional implementation, and disclosure-readiness 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

  • 9+ years in technical accounting, accounting policy, financial reporting, standard adoption, or audit advisory
  • Direct, hands-on experience in new accounting-standard adoption, impact assessment, auditor alignment, cross-functional implementation, and disclosure-readiness workflows
  • Experience making or influencing decisions related to transition method, impact quantification, adoption scope, auditor concurrence strategy, and timing risk management
  • Familiarity with tools such as: Workiva, FASB Codification, IASB/IFRS guidance, Excel, project-management tools, ERP/revenue/subledger systems
  • 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.
