DESCRIPTION

About this opportunity

Welo Data is building a talent pipeline of PhD-level experts in Japan ahead of anticipated work with a major AI client. We're not filling a role that starts tomorrow — we're getting ahead of a project we expect to launch in the coming months, so we can move fast once it's confirmed. Joining now means you're first in line when the work opens up.

Project Details

• Rate: $60 USD / hour

• Location: Remote in Japan

• Engagement type: Freelance / Independent Contractor

• Status: Building talent pipeline for upcoming project — not an immediate start

What the work will look like

Once the project confirms, selected experts will help train and evaluate AI models by:

• Writing, reviewing, and grading responses in your area of expertise

• Assessing AI outputs for accuracy, reasoning, and nuance

• Providing structured feedback that improves model quality

• Applying doctoral-level judgment to real-world, subject-specific tasks

Why join the pipeline now

• Priority access when this (and future) projects open

• Flexible, remote, project-based work suited to academics and researchers

• Work that puts your expertise directly to use shaping AI systems

REQUIREMENTS

Who we're looking for

• A completed PhD (or ABD near completion) in one of the following fields:

o Social & Behavioral Science (psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science, economics, etc.)

o Humanities (history, philosophy, religious studies, area studies, etc.)

o Arts (art history, performance studies, music, media & cultural studies, etc.)

o Language & Linguistics (Japanese language, translation studies, applied linguistics, literature, etc.)

• Native or professional fluency in Japanese
