Social Media Expert

In this hourly, remote contractor role, you will work as a Social Media Subject Matter Expert (SME) to review AI-generated social content and social strategy outputs and/or create expert social media content, evaluating reasoning quality, audience fit, and step-by-step creative decision-making while providing precise written feedback. You will assess solutions for clarity, brand voice, platform fit, and adherence to the prompt; identify issues in messaging, hooks, structure, CTA effectiveness, compliance/claim risk, and community-safety considerations; fact-check claims where needed; write high-quality explanations and model posts that demonstrate strong social-first writing; and rate and compare multiple responses based on effectiveness, correctness, and reasoning quality. This role is with SME Careers, a fast-growing AI Data Services company and subsidiary of SuperAnnotate, delivering training data for many of the world’s largest AI companies and foundation-model labs. Your social media expertise directly helps improve the world’s premier AI models by making their social content more on-brand, engaging, accurate, and clearly explained.

Important: There is no immediate project for this role; however, if qualified, you will be among the first experts we reach out to when relevant opportunities arise. This will also provide you with access to future projects available through our expert network.

• Develop AI Training Content: Create detailed prompts and gold-standard social outputs (posts, threads, scripts, calendars, strategy notes) to guide AI learning.
• Optimize AI Performance: Evaluate and rank AI responses to improve engagement, clarity, platform fit, and brand alignment.
• Ensure Model Integrity: Test AI outputs for inaccuracies, unsafe/misleading claims, policy risks, and bias; validate reliability across use cases.

• Experience with content operations: content calendars, creative briefs, approvals workflows, and collaborating with design/video teams.
• Comfort evaluating content for risk: misleading claims, policy violations, brand safety, and sensitive-topic handling.
