English Language Specialist – AI Training (Contract)

About the Role

iMerit - an EXL Company, is hiring English Language Specialists to bring precise, native-quality language judgment to multimodal AI systems (text, image, video, and audio combined) used by some of the world's leading AI labs. You'll compare subtle differences in AI outputs, catch errors a less careful eye would miss, and write and annotate nuanced content in video and image. Your ear for language and eye for detail matter more than speed.

Responsibilities

Evaluate subtle differences between AI-generated outputs

Catch and document errors in image outputs and annotations

Annotate objects, actions, and intent in video content

Write clear, publication-quality English annotations

Work from detailed guidelines (often 20+ pages) with precision

Apply reviewer feedback to sharpen your accuracy over time

Tasks can run 2+ hours and demand sustained focus.

Requirements

Write fluent, polished English with an editor's eye for nuance

Have 1+ year in editing, technical writing, translation, journalism, or data annotation

Can navigate long, sometimes ambiguous guidelines and make sound judgment calls

Have any AI/ML annotation experience (a plus, not required)

Genuinely enjoy deep focus, detail-heavy work. This isn't a half-attention gig.

Duration: Flexible, 10-40 hrs/week

Pay Rate: $35/hour
