micro1 is engaging experienced financial due diligence and transaction accounting professionals to help build tasks that measure how effectively AI systems can perform complex transaction work.
You’ll apply your transaction expertise to review realistic financial analyses, challenge assumptions, and identify material errors. Hands-on experience with agentic AI tools is required: you’ll work with agents to support analysis and independently verify the quality of their outputs.
Scope of Work
- Review financial due diligence, quality-of-earnings, and carve-out financial analyses for accuracy, completeness, and supporting evidence.
- Identify unsupported adjustments, reconciliation issues, double counting, and inconsistent accounting treatment.
- Use agentic AI tools to support review and help develop realistic transaction materials, task instructions, and objective grading criteria.
Who gets hired
- 5+ years of professional experience, including substantive hands-on work in financial due diligence, transaction services, or carve-out financial analysis.
- Direct responsibility for preparing or reviewing transaction-related financial analyses and deliverables. Audit experience or a CPA alone is insufficient.
