About this opportunity
Welo Data is building a talent pipeline of PhD-level experts in Japan ahead of anticipated work with a major AI client. We're not filling a role that starts tomorrow — we're getting ahead of a project we expect to launch in the coming months, so we can move fast once it's confirmed. Joining now means you're first in line when the work opens up.
Project Details
- Rate: $60 USD / hour
- Location: Remote in Japan
- Engagement type: Freelance / Independent Contractor

- Arts (art history, performance studies, music, media & cultural studies, etc.)
- Language & Linguistics (Japanese language, translation studies, applied linguistics, literature, etc.)
- Native or professional fluency in Japanese
- Strong written communication skills — you can explain complex ideas clearly
- Comfort working independently in a remote, deadline-driven environment
What the work will look like
Once the project confirms, selected experts will help train and evaluate AI models by:
- Writing, reviewing, and grading responses in your area of expertise
- Assessing AI outputs for accuracy, reasoning, and nuance
