About this Role

What You'll Do

  • Review AI-generated content on philosophy, ethics, theology, and religious traditions for accuracy, nuance, and scholarly rigor
  • Identify factual errors, logical fallacies, misrepresentations of belief systems, or oversimplifications of complex arguments
  • Evaluate whether AI responses demonstrate appropriate sensitivity to diverse worldviews and traditions
  • Provide clear, structured feedback on reasoning quality and argumentative depth
  • Craft expert-level prompts and model reference answers to train AI on philosophical and theological topics
  • Work independently and asynchronously — no meetings, no fixed hours

About the Role

What does it mean for an AI to truly understand ethics, metaphysics, or the diversity of human belief? That's the question you'll help answer. We're looking for experts in philosophy, theology, and religious studies to evaluate and improve AI systems tackling some of humanity's most profound topics — from moral reasoning and epistemology to comparative religion and applied ethics. Your scholarly insight will directly shape how AI engages with these subjects at a level of depth and nuance that actually matters. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. Work on your own schedule, from anywhere.

Who You Are

Required: Nice to Have:

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in philosophy, theology, religious studies, ethics, or a closely related field — OR 3+ years of professional experience teaching, writing, or researching in these areas
  • Strong command of major philosophical traditions, world religions, or ethical frameworks
  • Ability to assess logical coherence, argumentative structure, and factual claims with precision
  • Excellent written communication skills with a sensitivity to nuance
  • Comfortable engaging objectively with diverse and sometimes sensitive subject matter
  • No prior AI experience required
  • Graduate-level education (MA, MDiv, PhD) in philosophy, theology, or religious studies
  • Published research, teaching experience, or professional writing in these fields
  • Familiarity with comparative religion, applied ethics, or history of philosophy
  • Experience with academic peer review or editorial work

Why This Role

  • Meaningful work — your expertise directly influences how AI handles ethics, belief, and moral reasoning at scale
  • Fully remote and flexible — set your own hours and work from wherever you choose
  • Work on cutting-edge AI projects with leading research labs
  • Autonomy — task-based, asynchronous work that fits around your life
  • Ongoing opportunity — strong performers are considered for contract extensions and additional projects
  • Rare opportunity to apply deep humanistic scholarship to one of the most consequential technologies of our time

Requirements

  • Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)
  • Reliable high-speed internet connection

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the assessment actually like?

Notoriously strict. Alignerr uses TestGorilla for role-specific timed tests — a blank coding environment for engineers, rigorous grammar and fact-checking for writers. There is almost no hand-holding. The critical catch: this is essentially a one-shot process. Fail or abandon the assessment, and you are typically locked out of that role permanently with no option to retake.

How quickly can I start earning after I pass?

Not immediately. Even after passing the assessment and completing identity verification (via Persona) and billing setup (via Deel), you may sit in a waiting pool for weeks or months. You only start earning when a project matching your specific skills launches and you are officially assigned. Do not plan around Alignerr income until you are actively on a project.

Is there a community?

Yes — and it is one of Alignerr's genuine strengths. Once assigned to a project, you are added to Slack channels where you can ask questions, get rubric clarifications from admins, and talk to other AI trainers. This is rare in AI training and makes a real difference when guidelines are ambiguous or change mid-project.

What does the work actually look like?

It is practical, hands-on data work. You might be recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. The tasks are designed to be short and distinct—typically 5-60 minutes per task.

How flexible is the schedule?

Extremely. This is true "log in and work" flexibility. You can usually work for 20 minutes or 4 hours depending on your availability. There are rarely minimum hour requirements, making it ideal for side income.

Is there an interview?

Usually, no. Hiring for these roles is almost entirely based on passing an automated assessment or "qualification" task. If you pass the test, you get access to the work.

What is the barrier to entry?

Alignerr is known for difficult technical assessments. You must pass a timed test in your specific domain (e.g., Python, Physics, or Language) before you are eligible for any paid projects.
