  • Apply your real-world or academic experience to validate complex economic scenarios and explanations
  • Work independently and asynchronously at a pace that suits your schedule
Who You Are
  • 3+ years of experience teaching, researching, or working in development economics
  • Strong command of global economic issues, data interpretation, and policy frameworks
  • Able to evaluate written economic reasoning critically and communicate feedback clearly
  • Comfortable working independently on structured review tasks
  • Detail-oriented and reliable
Nice to Have
  • Graduate degree in Economics or a closely related field
  • Experience in field research, NGO work, or international economic policy
  • Familiarity with AI systems or content evaluation workflows
Why Join Us
  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects with top research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work on your own schedule from anywhere
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, variety, and global collaboration
  • Contribute to meaningful work that improves how AI understands the world's most pressing economic issues
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
