Marketing Expert | $80-$150/hr Remote
Overview
This is a remote, hourly consulting role with an AI research organization, paying $80–$150 per hour. You won't be creating marketing deliverables—instead, you'll evaluate how well AI systems handle real-world marketing tasks. Your main job is to define what top-quality work looks like, then score sample work with clear, defensible reasoning. It's a unique opportunity to apply your marketing expertise to shape AI evaluation standards.
What You'll Do4
- 1Design detailed, task-specific rubrics for real-world marketing outputs like creative briefs, campaign concepts, brand positioning decks, ad copy, scripts, and integrated campaign plans
- 2Evaluate both AI-generated and human-created work against those rubrics, providing a written rationale for each score
- 3Maintain consistent, evidence-based scoring so results are reproducible and hold up to scrutiny
- 4Incorporate feedback from senior reviewers and quickly refine your approach based on their guidance
Requirements6
- 1At least 5 years of hands-on experience in marketing, advertising, or a related field
- 2A track record as a creative director, account lead, brand strategist, or senior brand marketer at a leading agency or consumer company
- 3Deep practical knowledge of the craft—writing and assessing creative briefs, campaign development across channels, brand positioning, messaging, and judging work against a brief and business goals
- 4Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to clearly articulate why a piece of work succeeds or falls short
- 5A detail-oriented, consistent mindset and comfort with having your judgments reviewed and calibrated against peers
- 6Prior involvement in AI training, evaluation, or human-data projects is a plus, but not required
Who Should Apply
You're a seasoned marketing creative or strategist who can spot the difference between good and exceptional work at a glance—and explain that difference in writing. You enjoy creating evaluation standards and applying them objectively, and you're comfortable with your assessments being checked and aligned with others. You're interested in helping AI systems get better at marketing, not in doing the marketing yourself.
