Develop detailed explanations covering both foundational and advanced concepts across multiple areas of economics.
Collaborate with annotation leads and project managers to refine project guidelines and maintain high-quality standards.
Create "golden responses" that serve as benchmark examples for future AI model training.
Document economic reasoning, assumptions, and methodology to improve data quality and AI interpretability.
Participate in remote discussions and collaborative reviews to ensure consistency across project deliverables.

Experience authoring, reviewing, or publishing scientific, technical, or educational economics content.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain complex economic concepts clearly.
Strong analytical skills with exceptional attention to methodological rigor and technical accuracy.
Experience with AI, data annotation, benchmarking, or technical content development is a plus.
Ability to work independently and collaborate effectively within a remote, distributed team environment.

Additional Information

Your contributions will directly improve how next-generation AI systems understand, reason about, and apply advanced economic concepts across a wide range of academic, business, and policy domains.
