Full job details
Are you a seasoned attorney eager to shape the future of AI? Large-scale language models are evolving from clever chatbots into powerful engines of academic and professional exploration. With high-quality training data, tomorrow’s AI can democratize world-class legal education, assist with real-world legal reasoning, and support advanced research and practice across jurisdictions. That training data begins with you—your expertise will help power the next generation of AI.
We’re looking for attorneys with substantial litigation experience who can challenge advanced AI models with realistic legal scenarios, evaluate their reasoning, and identify opportunities for improvement. You’ll work on matters involving trial advocacy, motion practice, appellate strategy, evidence handling, procedural analysis, and judicial decision-making—documenting performance gaps to strengthen model reasoning.
On a typical day, you will engage in substantive legal dialogue with the model, assess its responses for factual accuracy and analytical rigor, identify reproducible failure points, and collaborate with our team to refine prompts and improve evaluation metrics.
A JD and active law license are required. Significant litigation experience—whether in trial, appellate, or complex dispute resolution—is expected. Ideal candidates may also bring a history of publication, prior clerkships, teaching experience, or subject matter specialization. The ability to articulate legal reasoning clearly and precisely is essential.
Ready to channel your litigation expertise into building the AI tools of tomorrow? Apply today and help train the model that will support legal professionals and learners around the world.
We offer a pay range of $50 to $75 per hour, with the exact rate determined after evaluating your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above. As a contractor you’ll supply a secure computer and high-speed internet; company-sponsored benefits such as health insurance and PTO do not apply.
