About AI Training Work

AI training is the human side of building artificial intelligence. People with real-world expertise create examples, write strong reference responses, evaluate model outputs, and provide feedback that helps AI systems become more accurate, useful, and aligned with professional standards.

This role applies military and federal reporting expertise to generative AI training. Your work will help models produce clearer, more compliant government communication while exposing you to a rapidly growing area of technology work.

• Work remotely using a computer and internet connection
• Choose flexible part-time work that fits around other commitments
• Help shape how modern AI systems write and evaluate professional documents

The Role

OpenTrain is seeking a Military Writing and Reporting AI Training Specialist to transform practical military and federal documentation expertise into realistic training examples, evaluation criteria, and detailed model feedback.
