Desirable

• As a Technical Accounting Subject-Matter Expert, you will apply deep technical accounting and professional practice experience to support the development of xAI’s next-generation artificial intelligence systems. In this role, you will contribute rigorous technical accounting analysis, clear written explanations, and sound professional judgment that help train AI models to address complex, non-routine accounting issues
• Working closely with engineering and research teams, you will evaluate sophisticated accounting scenarios and guide how AI systems interpret and apply authoritative U.S. GAAP, SEC guidance, and company-level accounting policy considerations. Your contributions will directly impact the accuracy, consistency, and reliability of AI-generated accounting conclusions
• You will draw on hands-on experience across technical financial reporting areas—such as revenue recognition, business combinations, consolidations, equity compensation, leases, financial instruments, and disclosures—to analyze challenging fact patterns similar to those encountered in Big 4 engagements, national office consultations, or technical accounting memo development
• Success requires the ability to exercise professional judgment under ambiguity, clearly document accounting conclusions, and adapt quickly to iterative feedback, much like supporting complex client transactions or responding to emerging accounting standards and SEC interpretations
• Use proprietary software applications to provide input/labels on defined projects
• Support and ensure the delivery of high-quality curated data
• Play a pivotal role in supporting and contributing to the training of new tasks, working closely with the technical staff to ensure the successful development and implementation of cutting-edge initiatives/technologies
• Interact with the technical staff to help improve the design of efficient annotation tools
• Choose problems from corporate accounting fields that align with your expertise, providing rigorous solutions and model critiques where you can confidently provide detailed solutions and evaluate model responses
• Regularly interpret, analyze, and execute tasks based on given instructions
• For those who will be working from a personal device, please note your computer must be a Chromebook, Mac with MacOS 11.0 or later, or Windows 10 or later
