About The Role
We're looking for economists with public policy experience to help shape how AI understands and reasons about real-world economic and policy challenges. Your expertise will directly influence the quality of AI-generated analysis — making it more rigorous, accurate, and grounded in how policy actually works.
What You'll Do
- Review and evaluate AI-generated public policy analysis and applied economics content for accuracy and rigor
- Assess economic reasoning across areas such as regulation, welfare policy, taxation, and public programs
- Provide structured, detailed feedback to improve the clarity, depth, and real-world relevance of AI outputs
- Validate economic scenarios, models, and policy conclusions using your applied expertise
- Work independently and asynchronously — on a schedule that works for you
Who You Are
- 3+ years of experience working or teaching in public economics, applied economics, or economic policy
- Strong command of policy analysis frameworks and economic tradeoff reasoning
- Able to critically assess written economic arguments and recommendations
- Comfortable providing clear, detailed written feedback at scale
- Self-motivated and reliable working independently in a remote environment
Nice to Have
- Graduate degree in Economics, Public Policy, or a related field
- Professional experience in government agencies, think tanks, or policy research organizations
- Familiarity with AI systems or content evaluation workflows
