Overview

micro1 seeks Military Writing Specialists to train next-generation AI systems using expertise in military writing and federal documentation standards. This remote contractor role (US only) involves creating, reviewing, and evaluating reports, summaries, and status updates that mirror authentic military processes. Your domain knowledge in Department of Defense procedures will directly shape how AI models learn to produce compliant government communication. No prior AI experience is needed.

What You'll Do7

  • Produce realistic military and federal status reports, summaries, and executive updates from prompts and provided materials.
  • Craft golden responses that exemplify high-quality, standards-aligned reporting for AI training.
  • Draft grading rubrics and guidelines that reflect best practices in federal and military writing assessment.
  • Assess AI-generated reports and deliver detailed feedback in both written and verbal formats.
  • Explain stylistic differences and individual approaches to common military documents such as WARs, SITREPs, AARs, and executive summaries.
  • Generate supporting documents like decision briefs, memoranda, and action officer updates as needed.
  • Work with other subject matter experts to ensure diverse reporting styles and correct branch-specific terminology.

Requirements7

  • Former U.S. Department of War (Department of Defense) professional with at least 3 years of relevant experience.
  • Experience producing templated and standard reports such as Weekly Activity Reports (WARs), Situation Reports (SITREPs), After-Action Reviews, or similar artifacts.
  • Expertise across two or more branches of the U.S. military is a plus; a diverse background across roles is highly valued.
  • Proven proficiency in written and verbal communication, especially in conveying technical or operational subject matter.
  • Demonstrated ability to craft, grade, and review back office documents, PowerPoints, memos, and spreadsheets for military or federal purposes.
  • US-based contributor with broad familiarity with federal documentation standards and compliance best practices.
  • Comfortable collaborating remotely and sharing insights on nuanced, highly procedural reporting tasks.

Who Should Apply

The ideal candidate is a former Department of Defense professional with at least three years of experience producing standard military reports like WARs, SITREPs, and AARs. You should be skilled at writing, grading, and reviewing federal documents, and comfortable working remotely with other experts. A background spanning multiple military branches is a plus.

Salary Insight
