Corporate & M&A Attorney Expert

<p>Corporate and M&A attorneys to build the deal, diligence, and board governance scenarios frontier AI labs use to test model judgment.</p>
<p>AfterQuery builds the expert evaluation data that frontier AI labs use to measure and improve their models. We're hiring corporate and M&A attorneys as contractors to author and grade the transactional scenarios those evaluations run on.</p>
<p><strong>What you'll actually do</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Author realistic deal scenarios from term sheet through closing, the kind a practicing deal lawyer actually runs.</li>
<li>Write reference answers with the legal reasoning behind each drafting and diligence judgment, from reps and warranties to indemnification structure.</li>
<li>Grade model output on purchase agreements, diligence summaries, disclosure schedules, and board matters.</li>
<li>Flag analysis that reads polished but would expose a client to real risk, the misses only a practitioner would catch.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Who this is for</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Attorneys with a JD, active bar admission, and at least two years of corporate or M&A practice at a firm or in house.</li>
<li>Deal lawyers who have owned real workstreams, drafting, diligence, negotiation support, or closing mechanics.</li>
<li>Practitioners who can explain why a provision is drafted the way it is, not just recognize the form.</li>
<li>People with strong written English who can turn deal judgment into clear, teachable reasoning.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Contract and pay</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>$100 to $200/hr</strong>, paid weekly via Stripe. Your rate is set from your experience, not negotiated down after you start.</li>
<li>Remote and async: fully remote, fully async. No fixed hours.</li>
<li>Minimum 10 hours per week, no maximum. Scale up or down week to week.</li>
<li>No screen recording, no keystroke monitoring, no idle timers.</li>
<li>Independent contractor. Ongoing project work rather than single task batches.</li>
