About this role
Overview
Handshake is seeking Philosophy PhDs to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional academic or full-time role. You’ll use your advanced philosophy training to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand philosophy reasoning, theoretical analysis, and technical problem-solving.
This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside research, teaching, postdoctoral work, or industry employment.
Details
- Fully remote with a flexible, asynchronous schedule and no minimum hour requirement; most contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when participating in an active project.
- Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.
Qualifications
- Doctoral students and graduates (including those currently enrolled in a PhD program or in postdoctoral positions) in Philosophy or closely related fields.
- Candidates should have published at least one article on moral philosophy in a top generalist or ethics journal:
Philosophical Review
- The Journal of Philosophy
- Noûs
- Philosophy and Phenomenological Research
- Mind
- Ethics
- Philosophy & Public Affairs
- Utilitas
- Journal of Moral Philosophy
- Oxford Studies in Normative Ethics
Backed by an established career platform, with a huge range of roles and strong rates for advanced degrees. Work depends on active projects, most roles are US-only, and a pending lawsuit questions how workers are classified.
