About this Role
Job Summary
Join our customer’s team as a personal financial advisor (CFP®) and help shape the future of AI-assisted financial planning. This remote, part-time role lets you leverage your expertise working with typical American households to improve how AI supports both financial advisors and everyday clients. Work asynchronously alongside a leading AI lab, providing insights that make financial guidance more accessible and practical for real families.
Key Responsibilities
Review realistic financial planning scenarios that reflect everyday client conversations, covering budgets, emergency funds, debt payoff, retirement planning, and more. Evaluate AI-generated advice for suitability, clarity, and practicality for mainstream and mass-affluent households. Detail how you would conduct advisory conversations — including question frameworks, goal prioritization, and tradeoff discussions (e.g., mortgage payments vs. 401(k) matching, debt repayment vs. investing). Articulate actionable decision rules and rules of thumb used with real clients (such as cash reserve targets or savings-rate benchmarks). Deliver written feedback to refine AI explanations, next steps, and tradeoff framing — focusing on clear, empathetic language for non-experts. Identify compliance and risk considerations, advising when to stay within scope or refer to other specialists (CPA, attorney, insurance).
Required Skills and Qualifications
Several years of client-facing experience as a Financial Planner/Advisor, Personal Financial Consultant, or similar role serving mainstream households (W-2 income, standard employer retirement plans, common debts, and insurance needs). Demonstrated expertise in budgeting, cash-flow planning, debt management, retirement planning, education savings, and risk management for everyday clients. CFP® certification strongly preferred (or CFP exam passed with relevant experience), though ChFC or other credentials considered when paired with substantial practical experience. Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, able to explain tradeoffs in simple, reassuring language. High professional integrity, strong compliance orientation, and commitment to a fiduciary/client-first standard. Hands-on experience with standardized planning processes and a proactive approach to financial problem-solving.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience blending holistic planning and financial coaching, especially in mass-market or workplace advisor roles. Experience mentoring junior advisors or developing planning process materials (checklists, playbooks, workflows).
Requirements
- Must be eligible to work in Remote
- Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)
- Reliable high-speed internet connection
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
- Demonstrated expertise in Legal

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from the others?
Global Access. Micro1 is more open to international applicants (outside the US/UK) than DataAnnotation or Outlier.
What is the catch?
Privacy. Micro1 projects often require you to install time-tracking software that takes screenshots of your desktop while you work to ensure you are actually working. If you are uncomfortable with monitoring software, this might not be for you.
Is this traditional consulting?
Not exactly. You act as a "Teacher" for advanced AI. Instead of client deliverables, you are given complex scenarios to evaluate. You grade the AI's logic, correct its hallucinations, and provide expert-level reasoning. Your job is to train the model to think like you do.
Why is the pay so high?
This role requires deep, verified expertise. General knowledge isn't enough; the model is specifically being trained on "edge cases"—the rare, difficult, or highly technical nuances that only a senior professional would know.
What is the workload like?
This is cognitive, deep work. Unlike simple data labeling, you might spend 45-60 minutes on a single task, researching citations or verifying complex calculations. Quality is prioritized over speed.
What is the interview like?
You will likely be screened by "Zara", an AI recruiter. Treat this like a real video interview—speak clearly, ensure you have good lighting, and be ready to answer technical questions verbally, as the transcript is reviewed by human managers.
