Behavioral Economist Expert

What You'll Do6

• Compose behavioral economics questions and case studies that test AI models on heuristics, loss aversion, framing effects, and nudge design.
• Assess model answers against accepted research practice and explain, in writing, where the reasoning breaks down.
• Work with behavioral scientists and technical staff to set the right difficulty level for each item.
• Build scenarios that require a model to interpret experimental setups and draw sound conclusions from them.
• Keep every item both demanding and instructive, so a wrong answer still teaches the model something useful.
• Document recurring gaps in how models apply behavioral theory and pass those findings to the wider team.

Requirements7

• Master's or PhD in economics, behavioral economics, psychology, or a related discipline.
• Demonstrated work in behavioral economics research, experimental design, or applied behavioral science.
• Solid command of behavioral theory and the empirical methods that support it.
• Preferred: several years of behavioral economics experience spanning settings such as academic research, policy design, corporate consulting, or product design.
• Preferred: prior publications, experimental studies, or behavioral science initiatives on your record.
• Preferred: hands-on work with nudge design, choice architecture, A/B testing, or behavioral interventions.
• Preferred: exposure to AI or technology-driven behavioral applications.

Who Should Apply

A behavioral economist with a graduate degree and real experimental work behind them, someone who spots a misapplied bias or a shaky study design on first read. Publications or applied projects in nudge design, choice architecture, or A/B testing make the strongest case.
