  • Provide structured, expert feedback to improve scientific rigor, clarity, and real-world applicability
  • Work independently and asynchronously to complete task-based assignments on your own schedule

Who You Are

  • 3+ years of experience in soil science, hydrology, conservation planning, or a closely related field
  • Strong working knowledge of soil processes, water systems, and conservation techniques
  • Able to critically evaluate applied environmental science reasoning and identify where AI goes wrong
  • Comfortable reviewing and annotating technical written content with precision and clarity
  • Self-motivated, reliable, and able to work independently without close supervision

Nice to Have
