What are the responsibilities and job description for the Finance Expert position at Handshake?

Overview

Handshake is recruiting exceptional PhDs with a focus in finance to join our AI research community. This program brings subject-matter experts together to enhance the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) within specialized domains and subdomains. The Handshake AI Fellowship program runs year-round, though project availability will vary by domain.

Details

  • The position is remote and asynchronous - work independently from wherever you are.
  • Flexible hours and the ability to work remotely, with a commitment of approximately 10 hours per week.
  • Project work includes and is not limited to developing domain-specific prompts and evaluating LLM responses.
  • Dedicate time researching topics that are interesting to you, with the assistance of AI.
  • Learn new skills while contributing to the changing world of AI across various disciplines.
  • Placement into a project will be dependent on project availability.

Qualifications

  • Must be a doctoral candidate or completed a doctoral program with a focus in finance
  • Has experience as a CFA, investment analyst, or similar fields
  • Able to participate in primarily asynchronous work in partnership with leading AI labs
  • Believe your expertise can outmatch current AI systems in understanding and explaining key concepts in your field

This program is open to U.S.-based doctoral students, candidates, and recent graduates with valid work or training authorization (e.g., F-1/OPT, J-1, H-1B).* Participants are responsible for ensuring compliance with their visa conditions and confirming eligibility with their program or visa sponsor prior to applying.

  • At this time, we are unable to accommodate candidates on STEM OPT who require an i-983. Fellows with already approved i-983s, as well as those on pre-grad OPT, CPT, J-1, or H-1B, are not impacted. This position may be subject to change in the future.
