About the role

What if your curiosity, creativity, and way with words could directly shape how the world's most advanced AI systems think, reason, and respond?

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role open to anyone with strong writing skills and an imaginative mind. No technical background or AI experience required — just the ability to think laterally, write clearly, and ask the kinds of questions that make people (and machines) think harder.

Why Join Us

  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs.
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you.
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work.
  • Make a direct, tangible contribution to how AI learns, reasons, and communicates.
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch.

Responsibilities

  • Design original, inventive prompts across a wide range of topics, formats, and difficulty levels.
  • Craft questions and scenarios specifically engineered to challenge AI reasoning, logic, and creativity.
  • Write prompts that probe for accuracy, safety, nuance, and edge-case behavior.
  • Follow structured style guides and prompt-writing frameworks to ensure consistency.
  • Iterate and refine prompts based on project feedback and evolving research needs.
  • Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule.

Required skills

  • A natural creative thinker with strong written communication skills.
  • Able to write clearly and engagingly across a diverse range of subjects.
  • Intellectually curious — you enjoy exploring ideas, asking difficult questions, and thinking outside the box.
  • Detail-oriented and comfortable working within structured guidelines.
  • Self-motivated and reliable when working independently.

Preferred skills

  • Background in writing, journalism, education, research, or communications.
  • Experience with logic puzzles, game design, debate, or creative writing.
  • Familiarity with AI tools or language models as an end user.
  • Broad general knowledge across multiple subject areas.

Experience and education

  • No AI, technical, or academic background required.
