About this job

About the work

We are building expert-authored forecasting and research data used to evaluate and improve AI models on real macro analysis. Each task asks a practitioner to reason from a fixed evidence cutoff — no hindsight — and document the judgment a strong analyst would have made at that moment.

This role covers non-G7 central bank communication. We staff separately by country: a broad global-macro profile is not enough, and we are looking for depth on one specific central bank.

What you will do

• Interpret statements, minutes, speeches and wording changes from a specific non-G7 central bank in their source language

• Compare current language against prior guidance and prevailing market expectations

• Assign a calibrated dovish-to-hawkish score and spell out the implications for rates, FX and equities

• Review model-generated analyses and grade them against your own standard

Who we are looking for

• A former economist or adviser from the relevant central bank, or a senior local rates or FX strategist who covered it through multiple policy cycles

• Professional fluency in the source language

• Deep knowledge of that bank's reaction function and communication style, and experience reading it in real time

• Typically 8+ years of direct experience, or unusually strong evidence of equivalent performance

Backgrounds we look at first: the exact central bank, the BIS, the IMF, leading local institutions, top emerging-markets teams at global banks, and established macro funds. Brand-name experience is a strong first-pass signal but is not a hard requirement — direct experience and performance on the work sample determine who qualifies.

Point-in-time discipline

Every task is graded on reasoning from the stated cutoff without hindsight, data leakage, confidential information, or material non-public information.
