Due Diligence Checklist Support

About this task

This Machine-learning platform (5,000+ employees) is looking for a specialist Paralegal for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Collects and indexes documents for a transaction.

The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It builds AI products and needs human experts to check what the models produce.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United States works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. About 1 hour a week should overlap with the team's day (PT).

What you deliver

• Build the diligence index for an acquisition and track 120 requested items.
• One round of edits after the company's review is included
• A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope
• A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

How the work runs

• Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared
• Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback
• Last day: final version and handover note

Duration: about 10 working days. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.
