About the role

Evaluate AI-generated derivatives pricing, portfolio construction, factor modeling, and market-risk analysis against institutional quantitative-finance standards. Review assumptions, mathematical derivations, calibration choices, and numerical results for accuracy and internal consistency. Identify model risk, unstated constraints, data leakage, and conclusions that are not supported by the evidence provided. Write clear corrections and reference solutions that demonstrate how an experienced quantitative practitioner would approach each problem. Remote, project-based contract work. Scope and hours depend on project matching; the listed hourly range applies to matched work.
