Overview

AfterQuery places seasoned writers inside AI research, and this engagement puts you alongside one of the world's leading AI partners. Your writing becomes training material: stories, articles, summaries and dialogues that teach a model how text should read. A large share of the job is judgment, scoring output for fluency, coherence, factuality, creativity and bias against detailed guidelines. Expect remote work at 40 hours/week for 3 to 6 months as an independent contractor, paid $43/hr.

What You'll Do8

  • Craft prompts, creative samples and explanatory text inside your own area of subject knowledge.
  • Draft and revise training content that pushes a model toward harder writing tasks.
  • Produce paired prompts and model responses designed to probe specific capabilities.
  • Review AI-generated writing for fluency, coherence, factual accuracy, originality and bias.
  • Score and annotate that output against the project guidelines.
  • Write structured feedback that helps the model grasp nuanced language use and domain-specific writing conventions.
  • Adjust voice and tone to fit each scenario and its intended audience.
  • Keep quality steady across high volumes of content and hit agreed deadlines.

Requirements9

  • Bachelor's degree in English, Creative Writing, Linguistics, Computer Science or a comparable field.
  • 3+ years of professional English content writing or copywriting.
  • A clear read on what LLMs handle well and where they break down.
  • Strong editing instincts and the range to shift style and tone on request.
  • Full-time availability of 40 hours per week across a 3 to 6 month engagement.
  • Self-direction: plan your own schedule and meet deadlines without supervision.
  • Preferred: hands-on prompt engineering and experience judging LLM output.
  • Preferred: fluency in Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, French or German.
  • Preferred: familiarity with NLP concepts and human evaluation methods for LLMs.

Who Should Apply

Writers with three or more years of professional English copywriting who already read model output with a critical eye. A linguistics, creative writing or CS degree strengthens the case, and bilingual candidates or anyone with prompt engineering and human evaluation experience move to the front.

Salary Insight

Pay sits at $43/hr, near the top of what contract AI evaluation and training-data writing typically offers, which matches the three-year experience floor and the evaluation skill set. At 40 hours a week the engagement runs 3 to 6 months.
