About AI Training Work

AI training is the human side of building artificial intelligence. Professionals prepare, write, review, and evaluate high-quality examples so AI models can better understand complex ideas, communicate clearly, and produce useful results.

In this project, your product design expertise will help models learn how experienced designers explain decisions, assess trade-offs, and connect design choices to user and business outcomes. No prior AI experience is required because your domain knowledge is the central qualification.

• Contribute to next-generation AI systems through expert written input
• Use real-world product design knowledge rather than creating visual deliverables
• Work remotely with flexible, asynchronous collaboration

The Role

As a Product Designer focused on analytical writing and design reasoning, you will produce and evaluate written material about product design decisions. You will explain the why behind design choices, make complex reasoning accessible, and document how constraints, users, stakeholders, and business context influence outcomes.

The work centers on written analyses, design documentation, specifications, case studies, comparative assessments, and text generation or evaluation tasks. You will collaborate with project stakeholders through asynchronous channels to clarify requirements and align on deliverables.

• Subject matter focus: Product design strategy and design reasoning
• Primary data type: Text
• Work includes text generation and evaluation or rating
• Professional written English is required

What You'll Do

You will apply structured design thinking and strong written communication to help create useful training material for AI systems. The role requires clarity, depth, sound judgment, and the ability to explain decisions in plain English for varied audiences.

• Write structured analyses explaining product design decisions, rationale, and user impact
• Evaluate and critique product and design information
• Explain trade-offs, constraints, and business context clearly
• Draft, review, and refine design documentation, specifications, and case studies
• Translate complex design concepts and frameworks into accessible language
• Compare design solutions and highlight decision points and implications
• Collaborate asynchronously to clarify requirements and align on deliverables

Requirements

This opportunity is intended for product design professionals with substantial experience explaining and documenting their work. You should be comfortable synthesizing complex information, making critical judgments in ambiguous situations, and communicating design reasoning to non-technical audiences.

• 3 or more years of end-to-end product design experience, ideally for web or mobile products
• Expertise in product design strategy, prototyping, and design rationale
• Experience with prototyping tools, especially Figma
• A track record of writing design documents, specifications, critiques, or detailed case studies
• Exceptional analytical writing and information synthesis skills
• Strong critical thinking and thorough trade-off analysis abilities
• Fluent, professional-level written English
• Comfort working in English
• Experience with text generation tasks
• Background at leading universities or renowned organizations is a strong plus
