DESCRIPTION

All application steps are reused whenever another role requires the same step, so you never have to upload your resume or take the same interview twice Join a leading technology company's GenAI initiative and put your Excel expertise at the core of how the next generation of AI models learns to work in spreadsheets. We're seeking advanced Excel experts with broad, cross-industry experience — versatile professionals who have applied Excel at an expert level across a range of functions and industries, rather than in a single niche. Your expertise will directly elevate the quality of the training data behind the most advanced Large Language Models. This role is for generalists who bring genuine breadth — modeling, data analysis, dashboards, and automation applied across multiple domains and business functions. This is a W-2 employment position with Cincinnatus LLC, with the opportunity to be placed at a leading technology company as part of their extended workforce. Key Responsibilities Guide research teams to close knowledge gaps and improve AI model performance on Excel-based tasks across a range of domains. Design realistic Excel tasks drawn from your professional experience, and write accurate, well-structured solutions. Evaluate Excel tasks and solutions and provide clear, written feedback. Collaborate with other subject matter experts to ensure consistency and accuracy in training data. 3. Core
