  • Provide clear, structured feedback to improve model quality and explanatory depth
  • Apply your real-world teaching experience to evaluate how well AI communicates complex concepts
  • Work independently and asynchronously on task-based assignments

Who You Are

  • Strong command of regression analysis, causal inference, and core statistical methods
  • Ability to evaluate and explain quantitative reasoning clearly and precisely
  • Comfortable reviewing structured, technical content against established standards
  • Self-motivated and reliable — able to manage your own time and meet deadlines

Nice to Have

  • Master's or PhD in Economics, Statistics, or a related field
  • Hands-on experience with statistical tools such as R, Stata, or Python
  • Familiarity with AI systems, LLMs, or model evaluation workflows
