Opportunity Overview
Handshake is looking for experienced linguists and computational linguists to support AI research through flexible, part-time contract work. This is not a traditional job — you'll draw on your hands-on experience in linguistic analysis, corpus methods, or computational/NLP tooling to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI reason like a practicing linguist.
This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity you can take on alongside your current role.
What You'll Do
- Use your domain expertise to create expert-level linguistics problems and scenarios grounded in real analytical, corpus, and computational workflows
- Review and evaluate AI-generated responses for technical accuracy, analytical rigor, and alignment with how the work is actually done
- Provide structured written feedback to help improve AI model performance
- Complete tasks at your own pace with no set schedule or minimum hour requirement
Ideal candidates meet all three of the following
Candidates who meet at least 2 of the 3 qualifications above are also encouraged to apply.
Additional qualifications (not required, but strengthen your application)
- Research experience — publications and demonstrated expertise in a language or linguistic phenomenon that AI models handle poorly
- Degree — PhD or MS in Linguistics or Computational Linguistics
- Morphology, syntax, or phonology, including formal grammars
- Corpus methods and low-resource languages
- Phonetics (Praat, IPA) and computational/NLP tooling
- Proficiency with computational/NLP tooling and corpus analysis software
- Experience working with low-resource or typologically diverse languages
Required for all applicants
- Must have German work authorization
- Strong written communication and attention to detail
- Ability to explain complex linguistic concepts clearly
- Ability to work independently in a remote, asynchronous environment
