ABOUT THE ROLE:

As a Bookkeeping Specialist on the Human Data Team, you'll create cutting-edge datasets for training, benchmarking, and advancing AI models.

Your expertise will focus on practical bookkeeping scenarios across small- to mid-sized business domains, including recording daily transactions, managing accounts payable and receivable, performing bank reconciliations, handling basic payroll, and preparing financial reports (primarily in QuickBooks). Tasks may include capturing or providing data through audio/video recordings, so comfort with those formats is required. This fast-paced role requires adaptability, attention to detail, and the ability to follow evolving instructions to enhance model accuracy and performance.

• Support and ensure the delivery of high-quality curated data.
• Collaborate with technical staff to improve the design of efficient annotation tools.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• 3+ years of practical bookkeeping experience (hands-on role handling day-to-day financial records).
• Proficiency in QuickBooks to perform common bookkeeping tasks, including bank reconciliations, invoice processing, expense tracking, and basic financial statement preparation.
