Job description
ABOUT xAI xAI’s mission is to create AI systems that can accurately understand the universe and aid humanity in its pursuit of knowledge. Our team is small, highly motivated, and focused on engineering excellence. This organization is for individuals who appreciate challenging themselves and thrive on curiosity. We operate with a flat organizational structure. All employees are expected to be hands-on and to contribute directly to the company’s mission. Leadership is given to those who show initiative and consistently deliver excellence. Work ethic and strong prioritization skills are important. All employees are expected to have strong communication skills. They should be able to concisely and accurately share knowledge with their teammates. ABOUT THE ROLE: You will define and safeguard Grok’s distinctive voice: witty, culturally fluent, effortlessly charming, and never cringeworthy. RESPONSIBILITIES: Review and score AI model responses based on criteria such as humor effectiveness, timing, engagement, and conversational naturalness (using provided rubrics). Write or revise sample responses to maximize user engagement and entertainment, while ensuring factual accuracy. Maintain consistency in Grok's personality traits across varied topics (e.g., casual chat, technical explanations, philosophical discussions, humor). Create and label training datasets focused on elements like humor, irony, banter, and cultural references. Work with engineering teams to develop evaluation tasks that test and strengthen Grok's defined personality traits. BASIC QUALIFICATIONS: Advanced proficiency in English, including idioms, rhythm, tone, and nuance (native or equivalent level). Public portfolio with examples of humorous, engaging, or charismatic writing (e.g., published articles, social media threads, scripts, or viral content; provide links). Strong ability to identify tonal inconsistencies, poor pacing, or ineffective phrasing in text. Proven track record of creating writing that is consistently humorous, clever, or engaging, with evidence of broad appeal (e.g., metrics like views, shares, likes, or publications). Extensive knowledge of current internet culture (memes, trends, platforms) and historical/cultural references. PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE: Professional experience in comedy writing, screenwriting, viral content, improvisation, or performance. LOCATION AND OTHER EXPECTATIONS: Tutor roles may be offered as full-time, part-time, or contractor positions, depending on role needs and candidate fit. For contractor positions, hours will vary widely based on project scope and contractor availability, with no fixed commitments required. On average most projects may involve at least 10 hours per week to achieve deliverables effectively though this is not a fixed commitment and depends on the scope of work. Contractors have full flexibility to set their own hours and determine the exact amount of time needed to complete deliverables. <sp
