Research Associate - AI Validation (Project-based)

Supports Collective Residential's M&A/enablement team by executing AI-assisted research on prospective partner contacts and accounts, then applying independent judgment to validate the accuracy of that AI output before updating Salesforce.

Job Overview:
- This is an hourly, project-based opportunity that should last at least 6 months.
- Payments are in USD and biweekly.
- Completely flexible schedule. No requirement to overlap with U.S. business hours.

Responsibilities
- Run research on target contacts/accounts using provided AI tools (e.g., Claude)
- Critically review AI-generated output for accuracy, completeness, and plausibility — this is a judgment role, not a copy/paste role
- Identify when AI output is incomplete, inaccurate, or needs additional verification, and know how to close that gap
- Update and maintain clean, accurate contact/account records in Salesforce (CRM/Sales side)
- Apply understanding of Collective Residential's business model and target profile (property management company owners/decision-makers) to judge whether a contact/account is correctly identified
- Flag ambiguous or low-confidence findings to the enablement team rather than guessing
- Maintain confidentiality of all company and prospect data per NDA
