Overview

micro1 is hiring experienced operations practitioners to design benchmark tasks that test what AI systems can actually do. You will turn real operational workflows into multi-step tasks with objective grading criteria, drawing on your domain knowledge. No prior AI experience is needed. The work is fully remote and global, with strong English required (B2 minimum, C1 preferred).

What You'll Do6

  • Create multi-step tasks based on real operations work such as reporting, process design, and workflow management, complete with realistic reference files and clear instructions.
  • Define objective grading criteria so that two qualified reviewers would reach the same verdict on the same output.
  • Build tasks that require judgment rather than simple lookup, where the correct answer depends on reading the materials correctly.
  • Produce or source supporting materials for each task, including spreadsheets, system exports, process documentation, and operational reports.
  • Identify tasks that turn out to be ambiguous or ungradable and flag them instead of submitting them.
  • Deliver approved tasks on schedule and at the required quality level.

Requirements5

  • 5+ years of hands-on responsibility in business operations, operations reporting, process design, or workflow management, with direct ownership of the work rather than supervisory-only or adjacent exposure.
  • Experience creating or applying structured standards such as SOPs, QA checklists, process documentation, service level definitions, or training assessments.
  • Strong Excel capability and comfort reasoning across multiple documents at once.
  • Strong English, both written and spoken, at B2 minimum and C1 preferred.
  • AI or LLM evaluation experience is a plus but not required.

Who Should Apply

The ideal candidate has at least five years of direct ownership in business operations, process design, or workflow management, and has built or applied SOPs, QA checklists, or similar standards. Strong Excel skills and the ability to reason across multiple documents are essential. English proficiency at B2 or higher is required.

Salary Insight

Pay is up to $90 per hour equivalent. The exact rate is discussed during the hiring process.

Application tip

When describing your experience, highlight specific examples of SOPs, QA checklists, or process documentation you created, and quantify the impact where possible. Mention any AI or LLM evaluation work, even if it was informal.
