Capital Allocation Specialist - Remote AI Evaluation Freelance Role
About the Role
Crossing Hurdles is partnering with a US-based AI frontier lab to source senior corporate finance professionals for remote, freelance AI evaluation work. This is not a traditional finance role. Our client is building and refining AI systems that need to think, reason, and respond like real practitioners - and they need Capital Allocation Specialists who can tell the difference between a model that gets it right and one that gets it wrong.
What You Will Do
- Review and evaluate AI-generated responses related to capital allocation, investment decisions, and financial planning
- Rate outputs for accuracy, depth, and real-world applicability
- Write and refine prompts that challenge AI models on complex finance scenarios
- Provide expert feedback that directly shapes how AI tools reason through capital structure, ROI analysis, and resource prioritization
- Flag errors, inconsistencies, or reasoning gaps from a practitioner's perspective
Domain Focus
- Capital allocation strategy and portfolio prioritization
- Investment analysis and return modeling
- Corporate resource planning and budgeting
- Financial risk assessment tied to capital decisions
- Variance analysis and performance reporting against allocated capital
What We Are Looking For
- 5+ years of experience in corporate finance, FP&A, strategic finance, or capital planning
- Prior roles such as Capital Allocation Specialist, FP&A Manager, Strategic Finance Lead, or Senior FP&A Analyst
- CFA designation or MBA in Finance strongly preferred
- Strong command of financial modeling, NPV, IRR, and scenario analysis
- Ability to evaluate reasoning quality, not just surface-level accuracy
- Excellent written communication and analytical thinking
Work Style and Expectations
This is a remote, asynchronous-friendly engagement. You set your own schedule within weekly hour commitments. Work is conducted independently, and strong performers are regularly considered for expanded retainer arrangements.
Compensation
- Rate: $100-125/hr (USD)
- Payment: Via Deel, fortnightly
- Commitment: 15-20+ hours/week (minimum 10+ hours/week)
You May Be a Good Fit If
You have hands‑on experience making or advising on real capital allocation decisions, you can spot when a financial model or recommendation misses the mark, and you are looking for flexible, high-value remote work that puts your expertise to use in a meaningful way.
