About Aptura

Aptura is a research partner to the frontier AI labs: Anthropic, OpenAI, Google DeepMind. We capture how experienced professionals actually reason, so the models can learn from it.

The role:

Three months of banking work, done properly, without the pitch cycle, the staffer, or the live client. Half of it is building. The other half is judging what's already been built, yours and other people's, and being able to say precisely why it holds or why it doesn't.

Build DCFs, trading comps, precedent transactions and LBOs from scratch, to live-mandate standard, with full supporting assumptions

Produce valuations, models and decks across M&A, financial advisory and capital markets

Review other contributors' work the way an associate reviews an analyst's: check the logic, find the broken link, send it back with the reason

Show full description

Judge AI-generated analysis on the same terms, and say when it's wrong however polished it looks

Work with our research team to turn how bankers actually think into something a model can learn

This role will be a great fit if you

Have 2+ years in investment banking at a bulge bracket or elite boutique (Goldman, Morgan Stanley, J.P. Morgan, BofA, Citi, Barclays, UBS, DB, Evercore, Moelis, Centerview, Lazard, Jefferies)

Know modelling, valuation and deal mechanics cold

Hold a high bar and don't move it when the work is nearly good enough

Can explain why a piece of reasoning is right or wrong, not just that it is

Are curious about AI. No technical background needed

Logistics

Location: Liverpool Street or Remote

Start date: Immediate

Referral bonus: For any successful referral hired into this role

Staying safe while you apply

Never pay to apply, interview or accept an offer. ROLIVA never asks you for payment to apply to a job.
Apply only through the official “Apply on the employer’s site” button, on the employer’s own site, and check that a recruiter’s email uses that employer’s own domain rather than a free email address.
Be cautious of an offer made with no real interview, or pressure to decide quickly or share financial details early.
