Overview

Handshake AI runs a year-round program that places finance professionals on short project engagements. You will review AI-generated financial analyses, check valuation logic, and assess transaction scenarios through an investment banking lens. The work happens remote and asynchronous, with flexible hours and no minimum weekly commitment. Projects open at different times across domains, so your start date depends on when a finance project becomes available. Your financial modeling, valuation, and deal execution experience shapes how AI systems handle investment banking workflows.

What You'll Do8

  • Review AI-generated financial analyses and flag weak assumptions, calculation errors, or unsupported conclusions.
  • Evaluate valuation logic and test whether each step holds up under investment banking standards.
  • Assess transaction scenarios and compare them with real deal execution practice.
  • Apply financial modeling and deal execution judgment to critique AI outputs.
  • Write clear feedback that points to where an AI model missed key finance concepts.
  • Compare AI responses to how an investment banking team would frame a valuation or transaction.
  • Help improve training examples so AI systems better support investment banking workflows.
  • Spot recurring weaknesses across AI-generated finance content and report those patterns.

Requirements6

  • At least 2 years of industry experience as a venture capital partner or in a related investment or finance role.
  • Strong grasp of financial modeling, valuation methods, and deal execution.
  • Comfort working in an asynchronous environment with AI research teams.
  • Ability to review financial analyses and spot flawed valuation logic.
  • Experience with investment banking workflows and transaction scenarios.
  • Clear written communication for explaining technical finance judgments.

Who Should Apply

Finance professionals with 2 or more years in venture capital, investment banking, or a similar investment role will fit this project best. The role suits someone who can look at an AI-generated valuation or deal memo and explain exactly where the reasoning breaks down. Candidates who need set schedules, regular live collaboration, or a permanent team structure may find the asynchronous project format less suitable. A common reason applicants miss the mark is listing finance experience without showing hands-on valuation or deal execution work. Another is failing to demonstrate comfort with asynchronous, written review tasks for AI labs.

Salary Insight

The listing advertises up to $70.00 per hour. For project-based AI training in finance, that ceiling reflects specialized investment banking and venture capital expertise rather than entry-level analysis work. The rate is not a fixed annual salary, and total pay depends on how many project hours you complete. Expect project availability to vary, since assignments open at different points in the year.
