Economics & Market Logic Expert (AI Community)

About the Role:

Do you have a background in Economics or Finance? AI models are often used to summarize market trends, explain supply and demand, or give business advice, but they can sometimes get the "logic of money" wrong. At TELUS Digital, we are looking for people who understand how economies work to help our AI become a better financial thinker. You don’t need to be a data scientist—you just need to use your degree to keep the AI’s economic facts and reasoning accurate.

What You’ll Do (Simple Tasks):

• Check Economic Logic: Read an AI’s explanation of a market event and make sure it correctly understands concepts like inflation, interest rates, or opportunity cost.
• Verify Data & Trends: Look at simple charts or economic summaries generated by the AI and ensure the numbers and conclusions match real-world data.
• Review Business Advice: If the AI is asked to help a small business with pricing or competition, you check to make sure its advice follows sound economic principles.
• Local Market Context: Help the AI understand how the economy works in your specific country, including local currencies and regional trade habits.

How to qualify

Mandatory Qualifications:

• Education: A minimum of a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics, Finance, or International Trade

• Native Language: Native-level proficiency in your primary language. We need experts who understand how economic terms are used in their home markets.

• English Proficiency: Basic (B1) English so you can follow project guidelines.

Analytical Thinking: You are good at looking at a situation and seeing the "cause and effect" behind the numbers.

Assessment:

In order to be hired into our community, you’ll go through a subject-specific qualification exam that will determine your suitability for the position and complete ID verification.

Payment:

Currently, pay rates for experts range from $18 - $50 USD per hour

Our Payment terms are defined for each project.
