Overview
micro1 seeks Educator/Assessor Writers to support a customer project building advanced AI systems. You will evaluate AI-generated written responses, assign scores using rubrics, and write detailed rationales. This fully remote contract lets you work alongside other commitments.

Who Should Apply
This role fits educators, assessors, or academic reviewers who have graded written work against rubrics and can explain their judgments in clear prose. It also suits instructional designers or thesis supervisors moving into AI evaluation. The role is less suitable for those who prefer collaborative, in-person settings or who lack formal assessment experience. Candidates often get rejected when they cannot provide specific examples of rubric-based grading or when their writing samples show vague, unsupported reasoning. A common low-fit signal is treating the work as simple proofreading rather than analytical evaluation.
