The Role
We're building a research platform for the world's best fundamental investors. We analyze SEC and global filings, detect accounting policy changes, disclosure shifts, and ratio anomalies, and surface the signals that matter.
We're looking for someone who loves digging into filings and can spot what companies are trying to bury. Someone who gets excited when a company quietly drops a disclosure, reclassifies goodwill across segments before an impairment test, or shifts revenue recognition policy in a way that flatters the P&L.
You'll work across hundreds of companies, identify material changes, build conviction on which signals matter, and help shape a product for top hedge funds.
What You'll Do
* Analyze forensic signals across 10-K, 10-Q and other filings for hundreds of public companies
* Assess materiality of accounting policy changes, disclosure removals, and ratio movements
* Identify patterns across companies — organic growth inflation, revenue recognition games, goodwill reshuffling, disclosure removals that hide deterioration
* Write concise signal rationales — why a change matters.
* Prioritize which companies and signals deserve deeper research and publication
* Contribute to forensic research pieces that get shared directly with institutional investors
Who You Are
* Background in forensic accounting, equity research, or fundamental analysis at an accounting or audit firm, hedge fund, asset manager, or research firm
* 1–3 years of experience in an auditing or accounting role
* Experience or an interest in investing and financial markets
* You've read 10-Ks professionally — not as a checkbox, but to find what companies are hiding
* You understand revenue recognition, acquisition accounting, impairment testing, segment reporting, and other accounting games
* You know the difference between a routine policy update and a red flag
Nice to Have
* CFA or CPA qualification
Details
* Contract / part-time to start, with potential to grow
* Remote
* Flexible hours — work is asynchronous and output-driven
* You'll work directly with the forensics lead (former forensic accounting analyst)
