Overview
AfterQuery needs working agriculture professionals to pressure-test AI models against the kind of reasoning that comes up on a real farm or in a lender's office. You turn your own day-to-day work into realistic problems, then work them out using yield data, input costs, settlements and full farm budgets. When a model answers, you spot the mistakes a seasoned agronomist or farm manager would catch on sight. The engagement runs remote and part time, so it fits around a working career rather than replacing it.
What You'll Do6
- Write practice problems drawn from your own professional experience, framed the way a colleague or client would hand them to you
- Work through crop yield figures, input cost breakdowns, settlement statements and whole-farm budgets to reach defensible answers
- Check AI-generated responses for errors in agronomic logic, arithmetic or business reasoning that a practitioner would spot
- Flag answers that look plausible on the surface but break down once real field or lending conditions apply
- Build and maintain spreadsheets that hold the numbers behind each problem and its worked solution
- Explain in clear written English why a given answer is wrong and what the correct approach looks like
Requirements5
- At least 5 years of professional work as a farm manager, agronomist, agricultural lender or a comparable agribusiness role
- Bachelor's degree or above
- Hands-on spreadsheet work as part of your own job, not something you delegate to someone else
- Strong written English
- Ability to judge AI output against how the work actually gets done in the field
Preferred Qualifications3
- Background spanning more than one crop, region or operation size
- Certified Crop Adviser credential or similar certification
- Familiarity with farm lending or grain marketing
Who Should Apply
Working farm managers, agronomists and agricultural lenders with 5 or more years in the field who already handle yields, input costs and settlements on spreadsheets. The role suits practitioners who can explain their reasoning in writing. Students and early-career candidates are not a fit.
Salary Insight
The rate is $70.00 per hour, paid for the hours you work on project tasks. Pay at that level generally reflects the expectation of five or more years of hands-on agribusiness experience plus a degree, so it sits well above entry-level data annotation work.
