Job description

Generative AI Associate - Flexible Hours

Remote - Massachusetts

Innodata (Nasdaq: INOD) is a global data engineering company. We believe that data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are inextricably linked. Our mission is to enable the responsible advancement of artificial intelligence by providing the data, evaluation frameworks, and human expertise required to build AI systems that can be trusted at scale. We provide a range of transferable solutions, platforms, and services for Generative AI / AI builders and adopters. In every relationship, we honor our 36+ year legacy delivering the highest quality data and outstanding outcomes for our customers.

Scope of the Role

At Innodata, we’re partnering with the world’s leading technology companies to build the future of generative AI and large language models (LLMs). We’re on the lookout for a smart, savvy, and curious Generative AI Specialist to join our global contributor community as part of our Subject Matter Expert (SME) on Demand program. This is not a traditional full-time role. It’s a part‑time, remote, flexible, project‑specific opportunity designed for those who want to make a real impact—on their schedule. Whether you're a writer, linguist, educator, researcher, or just deeply passionate about language and logic, this role lets you contribute to cutting‑edge AI development while maintaining control over your time. You’ll be helping LLMs learn the intricacies of language and reasoning—not just how to write, but how to think.

Responsibilities

• Rate/assess the performance of AI models or algorithms based on their output or behavior through a set of evaluative questions.
• Label elements of a piece of content rather than the content as a whole.
• Assign predefined categories or labels to items.
• Evaluate the perceived quality and/or appropriateness of content.
• Generate labels to advance understanding of a concept, trend, etc.
• Create additional training data by applying transformations to the original data, such as modifying images (rotation, flipping, cropping), generating new text (paraphrasing, summarization), or altering audio/video signals (speed modification, pitch shifting) to reduce overfitting and increase dataset diversity.
• Review data and identify whether or not a product feature works as intended based on the project's guidelines.
• Label model outputs to identify if a piece of content is or isn't something (e.g., clickbait, gaming videos, branded content).
• Order or rank items based on a set of preferences or criteria.
• Create prompts or questions that will be used to generate responses from a language model or other AI system.
• Evaluate the relevance of content based on a relevancy scale (1‑3, 1‑5, etc.).
• Generate responses to prompts or questions using a language model or other AI system.
• Rewrite existing text while preserving the original meaning, often to improve clarity or style and adherence to guidelines.
• Produce concise summaries of longer pieces of text or data.
• Convert spoken language or audio content into written text.
• Convert text or spoken language from one language to another.
• Gather and compile various forms of data to be used for training, evaluating, or fine‑tuning the AI models (text, images, videos, audio files, or other digital content).

Qualifications

• A bachelor’s degree or higher in a humanities specialization. Advanced degrees (master’s or PhD) strongly preferred.
• Professional or expert level proficiency (C1/C2) in English.
• Hourly salary range: $15 per hour, based on experience, skills, and qualifications.

Expected hourly salary range for this position is $15 per hour, based on experience, skills, and qualifications.
