Government & Public Policy Expert for AI Model Training

Help train and evaluate frontier AI systems by creating, reviewing, and stress-testing realistic public-sector tasks that reflect real government decision making across policy, regulation, procurement, program management, budgeting, and legislative affairs. Your professional judgment will shape how advanced models reason about the choices agencies, legislatures, and public institutions face every day.

• Design realistic public-sector scenarios and deliverables based on hands-on experience, including policy options analysis, decision memos, briefing papers, and issue backgrounders for senior officials.
• Build and review regulatory work products, such as proposed and final rule text, preambles and regulatory impact analyses, public-comment summaries, guidance documents, and compliance determinations against controlling statute and regulation.
• Create procurement and contracting exercises grounded in practice, including requirements and statements of work, RFP and solicitation drafts, FAR and agency-supplement analysis, evaluation criteria, source-selection rationale, and contract administration issues.
• Develop program and grants management tasks, covering notices of funding opportunity, application review and scoring, subrecipient monitoring, performance measurement, and reporting obligations.
• Author budget and appropriations exercises, for example budget justifications, spend plans, reprogramming and apportionment questions, cost estimates, and fiscal-law issues such as purpose, time, and amount.
• Draft legislative affairs materials, including bill analysis, fiscal notes, amendment tracking, testimony preparation, and constituent or stakeholder correspondence.
• Review and grade AI-generated outputs for accuracy, completeness, procedural soundness, and fidelity to the governing authority, identifying subtle errors, edge cases, and failure modes in model reasoning.
• Provide clear, structured written rationales explaining why an answer is correct, incomplete, or wrong, and collaborate with the team to refine evaluation rubrics and raise quality standards for the domain.

• At least 3 years of professional experience in government, public policy, or regulatory affairs.
• Relevant backgrounds include federal, state, local, tribal, and agency-adjacent roles, such as civil service, political appointments, legislative staff, regulatory agencies, public authorities and special districts, government contractors and consultancies, think tanks, trade associations, advocacy organizations, and in-house government affairs or regulatory teams.
• Depth in one or more subdomains: policy analysis and memo writing, rulemaking and regulatory compliance, procurement and contracting, program and grants management, budget and appropriations, or legislative affairs.
• Working command of the administrative process, including how authority flows from statute to regulation to guidance to implementation, and awareness of tradeoffs, constraints, and stakeholders that shape public decisions.
• Excellent written communication, the ability to explain nuanced reasoning clearly for decision makers, strong attention to detail, and disciplined citation practices.
• A relevant credential or degree such as MPP, MPA, JD, CFCM, CPCM, PMP, or comparable is preferred but not required; demonstrated hands-on experience is prioritized.

• Location: Remote.
• Engagement model: hourly.
• Selected experts are onboarded and matched to tasks that fit their expertise; assignment to projects depends on fit and project availability.

• $50.00 to $60.00 per hour.

• Open to professionals with the experience types listed above across public-sector and adjacent organizations.
• Demonstrated ability to evaluate complex technical and policy work, identify subtle errors, and provide concise written rationale is required.
• Relevant credentials are welcome but not mandatory; practical experience carries greater weight.

• Submit an application through the project intake portal, describing your public-sector background and areas of expertise.
• Complete a short screening to clarify your subdomain strengths.
• Qualified applicants will be invited to a brief evaluation exercise that reflects the kind of work you would perform.
• Those selected will be onboarded and matched to tasks aligned with their skills.
