Finance Research Expert

About the Role

Micro1 is hiring contractors with hands-on US SEC filing experience to build hard finance research questions for AI evaluation. Each question targets a specific figure or fact buried in long filings or investor materials.

What You'll Do

• Write questions that require locating a specific figure in a 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, proxy statement, earnings release or investor presentation.
• Create questions where two documents disagree (original vs. restated, adjusted vs. reported) and the answer depends on knowing which is right.
• Track the correct fiscal period, filing and latest amended version.
• Test each question against current AI models and keep only those they answer incorrectly.
• Rewrite questions whose wording allows more than one valid answer.

Requirements

• Hands-on work with US filings and familiarity with US GAAP.
• Background in equity research, investment banking or corporate development, credit or restructuring, SEC reporting or Big 4 audit, or corporate law and due diligence.
• Comfortable reading long filings, footnotes and tables.
• Clear written English.
