About the role
Opportunity Overview
Handshake is seeking experienced Credit Processors to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional full-time credit analyst role. You’ll use your real-world credit and risk expertise to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand credit analysis, risk assessment, and lending practices.
This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside your primary employment.
Who This Is For
This opportunity is designed for established professionals currently working (or recently working) in roles such as:
-
Credit Processor or Credit Processing Specialist
-
Credit Clerk or Credit Administrator
-
Credit Investigator
-
Collections Specialist with credit file review responsibilities
This is not a traditional full-time role. You’ll apply once and, if qualified, be considered for part-time, project-based work as new projects become available.
What You’ll Do
This project involves using your professional experience in credit processing to design job-related questions and review AI-generated responses for accuracy and relevance to real-world credit operations and lending support work.
No prior AI or technical experience is required.
Qualifications
We’re looking for established professionals with:
-
4+ years of professional experience in credit processing, credit administration, collections, or closely related roles
-
Hands-on experience reviewing credit applications, verifying documentation, and supporting lending or credit decision workflows
-
Strong written communication skills and attention to detail
-
Comfortable working independently and following written guidelines
-
Professional judgment, reliability, and a high standard of discretion and confidentiality, especially with sensitive or proprietary information.
Work Model and Project Details
-
Status: Independent contractor (not a full-time employee role)
-
Location: Fully remote; work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection and access to a desktop or laptop computer
-
Schedule: Flexible and asynchronous, with no minimum hour requirement. Many contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when assigned to an active project
-
Duration: The Handshake AI program runs year-round, with projects opening periodically across different areas of expertise. Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available
