About the role

<p>Are you an economics expert eager to shape the future of AI? Large‑scale language models are evolving from clever chatbots into powerful engines of scientific discovery. With high‑quality training data, tomorrow’s AI can democratize world‑class education, keep pace with cutting‑edge research, and streamline economic analysis for policymakers and businesses everywhere. That training data begins with you—we need your expertise to help power the next generation of AI.</p> <p>We’re looking for economics specialists who live and breathe microeconomics, macroeconomics, econometrics, behavioral economics, international trade, public policy, labor economics, development economics, finance, and economic modeling. You’ll challenge advanced language models on topics like market behavior, game theory, fiscal policy, inflation, unemployment, economic growth, pricing strategies, supply and demand, economic forecasting, and econometric analysis—documenting every failure mode so we can harden model reasoning.</p> <p>On a typical day, you will converse with the model on theoretical and practical economic scenarios, verify factual accuracy and logical soundness, capture reproducible error traces, and suggest improvements to our prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.</p> <p>A master’s or PhD in economics or a closely related field is ideal; peer‑reviewed publications, research experience, or hands‑on data analysis projects signal fit. Clear, metacognitive communication—“showing your work”—is essential.</p> <p>Ready to turn your economics expertise into the knowledge base for tomorrow’s AI? Apply today and start teaching the model that will teach the world.</p> <p>We offer a pay range of $8-to- $65 per hour, with the exact rate determined after evaluating your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above. As a contractor you’ll supply a secure computer and high‑speed internet; company‑sponsored benefits such as health insurance and PTO do not apply.</p> <p>Job title: Economics Science Specialist – AI Trainer<br>Employment type: Contract<br>Workplace type: Remote<br>Seniority level: Mid‑Senior Level</p>
