About Aptura
Aptura works with leading foundational AI labs to bring institutional finance expertise directly into AI model development. Founded by ex-Lazard and Partners Group professionals, we operate from London and San Francisco.
The Opportunity
You've planned and executed testing, assessed controls, and reached conclusions you had to defend. Now that expertise has a new application: shaping how frontier AI models reason through audit and controls problems the way an experienced practitioner does.
What You'll Do
Design realistic controls, audit support, and testing tasks drawn from real engagements
Write evaluation rubrics that define adequate evidence, sound controls, and a defensible conclusion
Review AI-generated controls assessments, testing workpapers, and audit schedules for rigour and completeness
Build reference workpapers and controls matrices that set the standard models are evaluated against
Identify where models accept weak evidence, miss a control gap, or over- or under-test — and name the standard they fell short of
You May Be A Good Fit If
5–8+ years in external or internal audit, or a SOX / controls function
You've planned and executed testing and reached conclusions you had to defend
CPA, ACA / ACCA, CIA, or equivalent (preferred, not required)
You can explain why a control or a piece of evidence is — or isn't — sufficient
How Engagements Work
Fully remote, part-time and flexible. Work is scoped by project and ranges from short engagements to ongoing collaborations, structured as a contract or a monthly retainer.
Compensation
$80–$200 per hour, aligned with expertise, scope, and impact; exceptional or highly specialised expertise can go higher. Ongoing engagements are typically structured as a monthly retainer rather than hourly billing.
