About Turing:
Turing is one of the world’s fastest-growing AI companies accelerating the advancement and deployment of powerful AI systems.
Turing helps customers in two ways: Working with the world’s leading AI labs to advance frontier model capabilities in thinking, reasoning, coding, agentic behavior, multimodality, multilinguality, STEM and frontier knowledge; and leveraging that work to build real-world AI systems that solve mission-critical priorities for companies.
About the Role:
Annotators are the core builders of SkillsBench. You will design and write AI evaluation tasks — structured challenges given to large language model (LLM) agents running inside automated environments. Each task you create tests whether an AI agent performs significantly better when given domain-specific knowledge
skills versus without it. Your tasks directly feed into Turing's commercial AI evaluation pipeline, used by clients.
What You Will Do:
Write clear, unambiguous task instructions that define exactly what an AI agent must produce, where to save it, and what rules to follow Create reference solutions that demonstrate the correct approach and pass all automated checks Write human-readable verifier descriptions listing every check the automated test suite will run Author domain-specific skill files that teach an AI agent the conventions, workflows, and edge cases relevant to the task — without leaking expected answers Ensure the no-skills variant of each task is identical to the with-skills variant except for the absence of skill files Work within the task structure (instruction, environment, solution, tests) and follow Turing's task quality standards
Required:
Bachelor's degree or higher in a relevant technical or domain-specific field (Computer Science, Engineering, Finance, Data Science, Linguistics, etc.) Experience: 1–3 years in a domain where you have hands-on practical expertise (software development, financial analysis, document processing, data science, etc.)
Must Have:
Strong written English; ability to write precise, unambiguous instructions
Genuine hands-on expertise in at least one of the SkillsBench domains (coding, finance, document generation, audio/ML, etc.)
Ability to think from an AI agent's perspective — what would a model get wrong without guidance?
Comfort reading and producing structured file outputs (JSON, DOCX, XLSX, Markdown)
Nice to Have:
Prior experience with LLM evaluation, prompt engineering, or AI benchmark design
Familiarity with Python scripting Experience with Docker or containerised environments
Domains :
Power Systems & Control
Cybersecurity
Network & System Engineering
Offer Details:
Commitments Required: 40 hours per week with overlap 4 hours with PST Engagement type : Contractor assignment(no medical/paid leave) Duration of contract : 2 months; [expected start date is next week] Location : India, Pakistan, Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt, Ghana, Bangladesh, Turkey, Mexico
Requirements
- Must be eligible to work in one of: Bangladesh, Egypt, India, etc.
- Fluent proficiency in English (Written & Verbal)
- Reliable high-speed internet connection
Eligible Languages
Fluent proficiency in English
Compensation Analysis
Join the workforce powering the AI revolution. With a competitive rate of $16/hr and remote flexibility, this role allows you to balance professional growth with personal freedom. No previous AI experience is usually required—just your domain expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a software engineer?
Not anymore. Turing built its reputation matching senior engineers with Silicon Valley companies, but they have heavily pivoted into AGI infrastructure. They now hire non-engineering domain experts, technical writers, and researchers for post-training data annotation and RLHF. A strong analytical background and excellent English are required, but you do not need to code.
How does matching work?
Turing calls it the 'Intelligent Talent Cloud.' You build a profile and go through deep vetting — automated tests, an AI-powered interview, and practical skill assessments. Once vetted, Turing's algorithm automatically surfaces you to partner companies (Fortune 500s and top AI labs). You don't browse job boards or bid on work — matches come to you.
How does payment work?
You are hired as an independent contractor, responsible for your own local taxes. Turing collects payment from the client and pays you monthly in USD via Deel, Payoneer, or direct bank/wire transfer. Monthly pay is standard for long-term contract roles — if you need weekly cash flow, this structure requires adjustment.
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.
