Credit Processor (Contract)

Opportunity Overview

Handshake is seeking experienced Credit Processors to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional full-time credit analyst role. You’ll use your real-world credit and risk expertise to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand credit analysis, risk assessment, and lending practices.

This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside your primary employment.

Who This Is For

This opportunity is designed for established professionals currently working (or recently working) in roles such as:

• Credit Processor or Credit Processing Specialist

• Credit Clerk or Credit Administrator

• Credit Investigator

• Collections Specialist with credit file review responsibilities

This is not a traditional full-time role. You’ll apply once and, if qualified, be considered for part-time, project-based work as new projects become available.

What You’ll Do

This project involves using your professional experience in credit processing to design job-related questions and review AI-generated responses for accuracy and relevance to real-world credit operations and lending support work.

No prior AI or technical experience is required.

Qualifications

We’re looking for established professionals with:

• 4+ years of professional experience in credit processing, credit administration, collections, or closely related roles

• Hands-on experience reviewing credit applications, verifying documentation, and supporting lending or credit decision workflows

• Strong written communication skills and attention to detail

• Comfortable working independently and following written guidelines

• Professional judgment, reliability, and a high standard of discretion and confidentiality, especially with sensitive or proprietary information.

Work Model and Project Details

• Status: Independent contractor (not a full-time employee role)

• Location: Fully remote; work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection and access to a desktop or laptop computer

• Schedule: Flexible and asynchronous, with no minimum hour requirement. Many contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when assigned to an active project

• Duration: The Handshake AI program runs year-round, with projects opening periodically across different areas of expertise. Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available
