The job description

About the Role

What if your perspective and critical thinking could directly influence how AI treats people — fairly, safely, and responsibly?

We're looking for AI Ethics Reviewers to evaluate AI-generated content for bias, safety issues, and ethical concerns. Your judgment helps ensure that AI systems work equitably for everyone, across diverse backgrounds, cultures, and contexts. This is your opportunity to contribute to one of the most important challenges in tech today — from your own home, on your own schedule.

No formal background in AI or ethics required. If you think carefully, write clearly, and care about fairness, we want to hear from you.

What You'll Do

Review AI-generated content and outputs for potential bias, harmful stereotypes, or safety concerns
Evaluate whether AI responses are appropriate, fair, and suitable for diverse audiences
Identify ethical issues and provide clear, structured written feedback
Apply fairness and safety guidelines consistently across a wide variety of topics and content types
Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule

Who You Are

Genuinely interested in fairness, ethics, social impact, or responsible technology
A strong critical thinker who can consider multiple perspectives and spot subtle nuance
Culturally aware and sensitive to how content may affect different communities
A clear and concise written communicator
Self-motivated and consistent when working independently
No formal AI, ethics, or academic background required

Nice to Have

Background in social sciences, humanities, journalism, policy, or a related field
Experience evaluating content for quality, tone, or appropriateness
Familiarity with AI tools or content moderation workflows
Exposure to concepts like algorithmic bias, content safety, or digital ethics

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 meaningful, task-based structure
Contribute to AI development that has real-world impact on fairness and safety
Engage with a wide range of topics — no two days look exactly the same
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
