Full Job Description
📋 Description
- • This residency offers senior hedge fund professionals a unique opportunity to apply their deep financial expertise to the training and refinement of advanced AI models, directly influencing how artificial intelligence understands and processes complex investment strategies, risk frameworks, and market dynamics in real-world financial contexts.
- • As an Expert AI Trainer, you will play a pivotal role in bridging human financial intelligence with machine learning systems, ensuring AI models are grounded in authentic, nuanced decision-making from top-tier hedge fund environments, thereby enhancing the reliability and applicability of AI in finance.
- • Your day-to-day responsibilities will include reviewing and annotating complex financial datasets, such as investment theses, credit analyses, portfolio construction logic, and risk management frameworks, to train AI models in recognizing high-quality financial reasoning.
- • You will engage in iterative feedback loops with AI engineers and data scientists, providing expert judgments on model outputs related to strategy classification, scenario analysis, and predictive signals, helping refine the AI’s ability to mimic sophisticated hedge fund decision-making.
- • You will contribute to the development of domain-specific training materials by translating your experience in multi-manager platforms, fundamental long/short equity, credit/distressed investing, event-driven strategies, or macro/systematic approaches into structured, AI-readable formats.
- • You will participate in regular syncs with the Mentis AI team to discuss edge cases, model biases, and opportunities to improve AI understanding of financial nuance, including language used in investment memos, earnings call transcripts, and regulatory filings.
- • You will help validate AI-generated insights by comparing them against real-world outcomes and your own professional judgment, ensuring the system learns from accurate, high-stakes financial reasoning rather than superficial patterns.
- • You will have the flexibility to contribute remotely or in person in London, committing 15+ hours per week on a schedule that accommodates your existing professional responsibilities, making this ideal for active portfolio managers and analysts seeking meaningful side engagement.
- • You will work within a mission-driven team at Mentis Technology Solutions Inc., founded by ex-Lazard and Partners Group professionals, dedicated to elevating AI through domain-specific human expertise from finance, healthcare, and law.
- • The team operates at the intersection of elite financial practice and cutting-edge AI research, fostering a collaborative environment where your hedge fund background is not just valued but essential to product integrity and innovation.
- • Through this role, you will gain early, hands-on exposure to how large language models and specialized AI systems are trained, evaluated, and improved using expert human feedback — positioning you at the forefront of AI adoption in finance.
- • You will develop new skills in AI literacy, prompt engineering concepts, and model evaluation methodologies, while deepening your understanding of how AI can augment — not replace — expert financial judgment in institutional settings.
🎯 Requirements
- • 4+ years of experience as a Portfolio Manager or Senior Research Analyst at an established hedge fund
- • Direct experience in one or more of the following strategies: multi-manager platforms, fundamental long/short equity, credit and distressed, event-driven/activist, or macro/systematic investing
- • Proven ability to build and articulate clear, well-reasoned investment theses, credit analyses, or systematic frameworks in writing
- • Familiarity with position sizing, risk management protocols, and operating in high-accountability investment environments
- • Comfort working with unstructured financial text (e.g., research reports, investment memos, transcripts) and providing structured feedback for AI training
- • Availability to commit 15+ hours per week on a flexible, remote-friendly schedule
🏖️ Benefits
- • Competitive hourly compensation rate based on your level of experience and expertise
- • Fully remote work option with the flexibility to work from anywhere globally, or in-person collaboration available in London
- • Opportunity to shape the future of AI in finance by directly training models using real hedge fund expertise
- • Exposure to cutting-edge AI development processes and collaboration with elite AI engineers and researchers
- • Professional growth in AI literacy and emerging tech applications within investment management
- • Meaningful engagement that complements — rather than conflicts with — your current hedge fund responsibilities
