Financial Reporting Specialist - AI Trainer

About the job

Mercor connects elite creative and technical talent with leading AI research labs. Headquartered in San Francisco, our investors include Benchmark, General Catalyst, Peter Thiel, Adam D'Angelo, Larry Summers, and Jack Dorsey.

Position: Domain Expert - Financial Reporting (Workiva)
Type: Contract
Compensation: $70–$100/hour
Location: Remote

Role Responsibilities

• Confirm a figure, tag, or disclosure in the filing is correct and traces back to its source, not just that it renders.
• Catch broken or stale links, mis-tagged XBRL elements, sign or period errors, and edits made outside the scope of the request.
• Judge completeness: when one number changes, ensure all affected statements, footnotes, and tags are updated.
• Distinguish "the document validates" from "this would survive SEC review or audit."
• Verify that a request that should be refused (editing a locked section, overriding a signed-off control without support) is refused rather than forced through.

Qualifications

Must-Have

• Frequent Workiva use - weekly or more - in your current or recent role
• 3+ years of SEC reporting, technical accounting, or SOX/internal audit experience at a public company or audit firm
• Can spot a broken tie-out, a wrong XBRL element, or a missing disclosure on sight

Preferred

• CPA strongly preferred; Big 4 or public-company reporting background preferred
• Strong working knowledge in at least 2–3 specialized areas above
• Prior data annotation, labeling, or AI evaluation experience is a plus
