About AI Training and Evaluation

AI training is the human side of building artificial intelligence. Contributors write, compare, and evaluate model responses so AI systems can produce more useful, accurate, and engaging results.

This role focuses on structured evaluation and human feedback. Your game design judgment will help assess whether generated content reflects coherent systems, sound balance, and practical player-focused design.

• Work with chatbot outputs and domain-specific content
• Compare multiple responses using structured criteria
• Help improve how AI handles game design concepts
• Contribute to cutting-edge AI development from anywhere

The Role

OpenTrain is recruiting a Game Design AI Evaluation Expert to develop and evaluate content used for AI system improvement. You will apply practical game design judgment to player personas, progression systems, reward economies, quest mechanics, game state logic, and interactive board elements.

The work combines hands-on game systems expertise with structured comparison and assessment of chatbot outputs. You will help determine whether proposed mechanics are balanced, engaging, logically consistent, and appropriate for their intended scenario.

• Contractor position with part-time engagement
• Entry-level project classification with a requirement for at least three years of relevant game systems experience
• Focus areas include RPG progression, reward loops, gamification, and interactive storytelling

What You'll Do

You will establish the design context for each scenario, guide system decisions, and complete final evaluations of generated content. Your assessments should be grounded in real game design practice and clear, deterministic reasoning.

• Establish player personas and confirm the intended scope of game system scenarios
• Provide progression curves, XP guidance, reward balance recommendations, and quest or task board mechanics
• Validate leveling formulas, reward economies, game state logic, and interactive board elements
• Guide visual and domain-fit decisions during builder or canvas iterations
• Assess whether mechanics are balanced and engaging
• Compare multiple chatbot responses and complete final evaluations of the resulting content
• Express game mechanics as deterministic spreadsheet logic

Requirements and Helpful Experience

You should have practical experience designing game systems and be comfortable evaluating competing design approaches. Strong critical thinking is important because you will need to identify inconsistencies, assess tradeoffs, and explain whether generated mechanics work as intended.

Experience may come from a game studio, independent game development, or a serious games environment. Background in interactive storytelling, level design, player engagement, and game balancing is helpful when assessing a range of game system scenarios.

• At least three years of experience designing game systems
• Experience with RPG progression, reward loops, or gamification
• Practical fluency with leveling curves, XP economies, and quest or task board mechanics
• Ability to validate game-state logic
• Ability to express mechanics as deterministic spreadsheet formulas
• Ability to assess player engagement, balance, and interactive storytelling choices
• Experience from a studio, indie, or serious-games environment

Who Should Apply

This opportunity is a strong fit for a game systems designer, independent developer, or serious-games practitioner who enjoys applying design expertise to new AI tools. It is especially suited to people who can move between creative judgment and precise system analysis.

You do not need to be a machine learning specialist. Your value comes from understanding how game systems behave, how players experience them, and how to recognize high-quality design in AI-generated content.

• Game designers with RPG or progression-system experience
• Independent developers familiar with reward loops and game economies
• Serious-games practitioners who understand player motivation and engagement
• Designers who can evaluate chatbot responses consistently and critically
