Job description

Texas Sports Academy is a K-12 school designed for serious student-athletes who want both elite academics and high-level athletic development. Students cover 2x the material in just 2 hours a day, using the same 2-Hour Learning model as Alpha Schools. That frees up their entire afternoon for serious training, where they work alongside former pro and D1 athletes coaching them at the highest standard.

We're hiring an AI-first writer to write and maintain documentation for the academy. You'll write with AI every day: drafting, prompting, editing, and rewriting until the work is genuinely good. This is an in-person role in Austin, TX.

What You'll Do

• Documentation: Write, edit, and maintain documentation across the academy so people can find what they need and trust what they read.
• AI Drafting: Use AI tools daily to produce first drafts fast, then rewrite until the result reads like a person wrote it.
• Prompt Engineering: Build, test, and refine prompts that get quality output on the first pass, and document the ones that work so others can reuse them.
• Editing: Cut the filler, hedging, and generic phrasing that models default to, and rewrite until every doc is clear and correct.
• House Style: Keep voice, tone, and terminology consistent across everything we publish, whether the first draft came from you or a model.
• Fact-Checking: Verify names, numbers, and claims before anything ships, and treat model output as a draft, not a source.
• AI Workflows: Build repeatable writing workflows (templates, prompt libraries, review steps) that make everyone who writes here faster.

• Writing: You write clear, tight prose on your own, no model required, and you can show finished work that proves it.
• AI Fluency: You write with tools like ChatGPT and Claude every day and know their strengths, quirks, and failure modes.
• Editorial Judgment: You can tell good writing from AI slop in one read, and you know whether the fix is a better prompt or a hands-on rewrite.
• Prompt Engineering: You know how to use context, examples, and constraints to move a model from a mediocre draft to a usable one.
• Startup Culture: You're ready and willing to work in a startup culture, and you don't shy away from long hours, evenings, and weekends. Overtime paid for any hours worked over 40.
• Location: You're based in Austin, TX and can work from the office in person.
• Work Authorization: You're authorized to work in the United States.

Bonus Points

• Education or Youth Sports Experience: You've written for schools, families, or sports programs and know how to speak to those audiences.
• Knowledge Management: You've built or maintained a wiki, help center, or internal knowledge base.
• Automation: You've built integrations or simple automations (scripts, Zapier, model APIs) that speed up writing work.
• Style Guides: You've written or maintained a style guide for a team or publication.

Why Join Us?

Most writing jobs treat AI as a threat. Here it's the core of the work. You'll use these tools all day on real documents that ship, which means you'll learn more about AI in this role than in any other position. You'll set the standard for how the academy writes and have the autonomy to build the prompts, workflows, and style rules behind it. The role pays $40 an hour, with overtime paid for any hours worked over 40.

Texas Sports Academy is an equal opportunity employer. We hire for character, capability, and mission alignment.
