Identify misclassifications and edge cases, providing structured feedback to improve model performance. Assist in maintaining a consistent and effective topic taxonomy and data definitions as regulations evolve.

- Check rulebook structural integrity: Compare integrated and consolidated rulebooks in the platform against original regulatory sources to verify structural accuracy, including article hierarchy, ordering, versioning, and effective dates. Detect and escalate any gaps, duplications, or extraction errors. Collaborate with product and engineering teams to resolve issues and strengthen quality controls.

- Build the service: Respond to client demands for additional data to accelerate service development. Review and quality assure written development requirements. Work closely with software engineering teams to process new regulations from initial capture through to product integration.
