Job description

Join Our Team: Freelance Local Community Sourcer

Are you a trusted, well-connected member of your local community? Do people already come to you when something worthwhile is happening? And are you curious about how AI is shaping the future of learning?

If that sounds like you, keep reading.

The Role

As a Local Community Sourcer, you'll be the on-the-ground link between our project team and families in your community.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Identifying and engaging families with children (ages 5–17) interested in taking part in a short, paid research study
• Building and maintaining trust with local community groups, cultural organizations, and schools
• Clearly and accurately explaining the study, the consent process, and payment to parents/guardians
• Coordinating scheduling and logistics with participating families
• Reporting progress to the project team and flagging any community concerns early

About the Research Study

This role supports a paid research study in which families record a handful of short videos of themselves at home - a couple indoors, a couple outdoors - helping build more diverse, representative data for AI systems. Where children take part, a parent or guardian sets up the recording, stays present throughout, and gives consent before anything happens — it's simple, respectful, and entirely opt-in. The study is run by Centific through the OneForma platform.

This role requires genuine local Hawaii knowledge

• Comfort with light paperwork (consent forms, participant tracking)
• Genuine care for family and child wellbeing
• Reliable, proactive communication with the project team
