About this task

This Series C online learning platform for K-12 schools (501–1,000 employees) is looking for a manager Reference-Answer Writer for a rating and review programme for AI output in your own field, 4–8 h a week. Writes answers that cite primary sources.

The programme needs subject-matter experts who can tell a good answer from a plausible one in their own field. It works in education, with a calendar built around terms and enrolment peaks.

The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in Ontario, so this one is for residents there.

What you deliver

  • Write 8 explainers with links to official sources and the date each was checked.
  • Short calibration notes after the first batch, so your ratings match the guidelines
  • Flags for answers that are unsafe, off-topic or wrong in your field
  • A weekly count of items reviewed, confirmed by the programme lead

What a week looks like

  • Daily: one hour at a time that suits you, inside the agreed window
  • Tuesday: ten-minute sync if anything is blocked
  • Friday: weekly summary posted to the shared thread

Duration: Weekly batches for 12 weeks, renewed every four weeks. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.

  • Deftridge pays you in CAD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.
