Role Summary
Vertex is seeking a self-directed contractor to build an ASC 606 conclusion reference guide. The guide will help teams reviewing newly executed contracts find prior Vertex conclusions involving similar facts and circumstances. The contractor will organize existing analyses into a practical, searchable resource and explore how AI could make relevant precedents easier to find. The guide will support—not replace—professional accounting judgment on new contracts.
Responsibilities
- Review existing ASC 606 analyses, contract documentation, and related conclusions to identify recurring fact patterns and accounting considerations.
- Develop a consistent way to categorize and summarize prior conclusions, including their supporting rationale and source references.
- Build a user-friendly reference tool that helps teams locate potentially comparable analyses when new contracts are executed.
- Evaluate appropriate AI-enabled search or summarization capabilities in coordination with Vertex stakeholders and applicable data-handling requirements.
- Validate the guide with users, document how it should be maintained, and recommend a process for adding future conclusions.
Requirements
- Experience organizing complex information into clear, usable reference materials or tools.
- Working understanding of ASC 606 and the ability to interpret technical accounting analyses.
- Experience using AI tools in a professional setting, with an understanding of the need to verify outputs against source documents.
- Strong project ownership, attention to detail, and ability to work independently with stakeholders.
Technical Skills Required
- ASC 606 revenue recognition and contract-analysis concepts.
- Information organization, tagging, and searchable knowledge-base design.
- AI-assisted research or information retrieval.
- Proficiency with document and spreadsheet tools.
Nice to have
- Experience with biotechnology or pharmaceutical contracts.
- Experience building internal guidance, precedent libraries, or knowledge-management tools.
- Familiarity with enterprise AI tools and responsible handling of confidential information.
