About the role

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.

# 1\. Overview

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.

# 2\. 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 Qualifications

- Demonstrated advanced, professional-level Excel expertise, including advanced formulas (e.g., XLOOKUP, INDEX/MATCH, dynamic arrays), PivotTables, data modeling, dashboards, Power Query, Power Pivot, and macros/VBA.

- Breadth of Excel application across multiple industries and business functions — not single-function specialization — is a strong plus.

- Teaching or training experience and/or a PhD is a strong plus.

- Prior experience in AI training, human data annotation, or model evaluation — ideally Rubrics-trained on Mercor or a comparable platform — is a strong plus.

- Demonstrable career progression in your field. …
