About The Position

Turing is seeking securities and financial regulation experts to support projects that fine-tune AI models. The specialist will use their U.S. securities law expertise to evaluate how AI systems reason about securities law, including SEC enforcement, public offerings, broker-dealer compliance, and investment adviser regulation. No prior AI experience is required. The work involves reviewing AI-generated responses to securities-law hypotheticals, applying a structured legal rubric, identifying gaps in AI reasoning, and providing detailed annotations and written feedback. The specialist will also collaborate with researchers and project managers to align evaluation standards and project goals. This is a flexible freelance engagement of approximately 10–30 hours per week for about one month, with possible extension depending on performance and project needs.
