Overview

micro1 is hiring experienced investment banking and M&A professionals to build realistic transaction environments and use AI agents to create and review valuation models, deal materials, and evaluation criteria. You will turn live-deal workflows into multi-step tasks that test how well AI systems handle complex transaction work. The role is remote, with a preference for US/Canada, and also considers the UK and Latin America. Expect to commit at least 10 hours per week, with 20+ preferred, and each task takes about 3 hours after an initial 15-hour environment development. Pay ranges from $60 to $120 per hour, paid per task.

What You'll Do6

  • Construct realistic transaction environments that include company information, financial statements, diligence materials, and deal context.
  • Design multi-step tasks covering valuation, comparable-company analysis, financial modeling, and sell-side advisory.
  • Use agentic AI tools to develop and review CIMs, pitch books, valuation models, and supporting deliverables.
  • Create task instructions and objective evaluation criteria that measure AI performance on complex transaction work.
  • Independently verify the quality of materials produced with AI agents.
  • Turn live-deal workflows into realistic scenarios and client-facing deliverables.

Requirements9

  • 5+ years of professional experience in investment banking, M&A, or sell-side advisory.
  • Hands-on experience building valuation models, comparable-company analyses, CIMs, pitch books, and client-facing materials for live deals.
  • Hands-on experience using agentic AI tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or Claude Cowork for substantive work. General chatbot use alone is insufficient.
  • Corporate carve-out experience is strongly preferred.
  • Experience at a top-tier investment bank or M&A advisory firm is preferred.
  • Industrials sector experience is preferred.
  • Experience developing review standards, training junior professionals, or writing internal playbooks is preferred.
  • Prior benchmark development or AI evaluation experience is preferred.
  • Availability for 20+ hours per week is preferred.

Who Should Apply

The ideal candidate has 5+ years in investment banking or M&A, has built valuation models and client materials for live deals, and has used agentic AI tools like Claude Code or Cursor for substantive work. Corporate carve-out experience and a background at a top-tier bank or advisory firm are strong pluses.
