Accounting Experts

Role Overview

• Mercor is seeking senior accounting and audit professionals to build evaluation tasks for AI systems operating in Fortune 500 accounting contexts.

• The workflows are calibrated to the reporting obligations, control environments, and transaction complexity of Fortune 500 and large public companies.

• Contributors design enterprise accounting scenarios, produce reference work, and write rubrics that reflect senior controllership and audit judgment.

• Construct scenarios across F500 corporate accounting and controllership, including multi-entity and multi-currency consolidations under ASC 810.

• Build SEC reporting tasks (10-Q, 10-K, 8-K, proxy) for $10B+ public companies.

• Develop F500 SOX programs at scale, including environments with 300+ key controls and integrated audits.

• Author tasks on technical accounting under ASC 606, 842, 805, and 740 at multi-billion revenue scale, plus IFRS-to-US-GAAP conversions for multinational F500.

• Work with enterprise ERPs (SAP S/4HANA, Oracle Cloud ERP) as deployed in F500 finance functions; write rubrics that distinguish senior technical accounting reasoning from textbook recall.

Ideal Qualifications

• Direct experience with SEC reporting, SOX programs, and enterprise close cycles at material scale.

• Fluency in enterprise ERP environments and in technical accounting standards as applied at F500 revenue scale.

• Prior rubric, training-content, or technical accounting authorship is a plus.
