History & Cultural Context Expert

About the Role

At TELUS Digital, we need experts with a background in History to help AI understand time, culture, and heritage. AI often gets historical facts wrong or forgets the cultural importance of events. Your job is to be the "Memory" for the AI, ensuring it discusses history accurately and respectfully.

Responsibilities

• Fact-Checking: Review AI-generated articles or summaries about historical events to ensure dates, names, and places are 100% correct.
• Cultural Sensitivity: Ensure the AI describes historical figures and events in a way that is respectful to the cultures involved.
• Timeline Logic: Check if the AI understands "cause and effect"—for example, making sure it doesn't say an invention existed before it was actually created.
• Content Evaluation: Help the AI write better, clearer historical stories for students and researchers by providing feedback on its reasoning.

Requirements

• Education: A minimum of a Bachelor’s Degree in History, Archaeology, or Cultural Studies.
• Native Language: Native-level proficiency in your primary language is mandatory to understand your country's specific history.
• English Proficiency: Basic (B1) English to follow project instructions.
• Assessment: Complete a subject-specific qualification exam and ID verification to determine suitability for the position.

Pay

Pay rates for experts range from $18 - $50 USD per hour, with terms defined for each project.
