About the job
Aptura AI develops specialized artificial intelligence systems for regulated industries, with a strong focus on finance. The company’s leadership includes professionals with backgrounds at firms such as Lazard and Partners Group. Based in London and San Francisco, Aptura AI collaborates with AI labs and sector experts to improve model reasoning for finance, healthcare, and legal applications.
Role overview
This 12-week summer internship in London is designed for MBA or Master's students with a solid foundation in finance. The position centers on shaping how AI models understand and reason through complex financial scenarios. Rather than participating in live deals or preparing pitch books, interns will help define the financial challenges that train and evaluate next-generation AI systems for corporate finance.
What you will do
- Develop and validate financial outputs: Build and review financial models such as DCFs and LBOs, and create investment banking or private equity presentations to serve as expert benchmarks for AI evaluation.
- Assess financial reasoning quality: Analyze AI-generated financial outputs, identifying errors, flawed assumptions, or misinterpretations that a trained analyst would notice.
- Design decision-making frameworks: Translate the judgment processes of finance professionals into structured frameworks for evaluating model performance.
- Create high-impact evaluation tasks: Define financial challenges that test model reasoning in areas like M&A, debt structuring, earnings analysis, and capital allocation.
- Conduct human vs. model comparisons: Compare AI analyses with traditional practitioner methods to highlight where models succeed or fall short.
Requirements
- Current MBA or Master's student with a strong finance background
- Interest in AI development within the finance sector
- Available for a 12-week full-time internship in London during summer 2026
