About AI training and this role

AI training (also called data labeling or annotation) is the human work that helps models learn from examples. Tasks can include writing and editing text, reviewing model outputs, and performing labeling in annotation tools.

This role combines short-form content writing about energy topics with light annotation work using AWS SageMaker. It is entry-level, remote, and contract-based — a chance to contribute to how AI understands energy-related language.

The role

You will deliver brief, high-quality text content and perform any small annotation tasks requested for energy-focused material. This listing requests roughly one hour of paid work in a month, paid as a fixed-price contract.

  • Title: Content Writer
  • Subject matter: Energy
  • Experience level: Entry level
  • Employment type: Contractor (fixed-price)

What you'll do

Work may include writing short energy-related text, reviewing or editing brief passages, and performing light annotation inside AWS SageMaker as directed. You may also be asked to join occasional meetings and to set up any required equipment and accounts before starting.

  • Produce or review concise energy-focused text during the assigned hour.
  • Perform annotation tasks using AWS SageMaker when requested.
  • Complete initial setup of equipment and any project accounts as needed.
  • Attend scheduled meetings on time and communicate promptly about availability.

Requirements

We welcome entry-level applicants. You should be reliable, punctual for scheduled meetings, and able to complete initial setup of equipment and accounts. Because the project touches cloud tools, please list any cloud-related certifications when you apply.

  • Worldwide applicants accepted — fully remote.
  • Must complete initial equipment and account setup before beginning work.
  • Be punctual and timely for scheduled meetings.
  • Include any cloud certifications (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) on your application.

Project details, tools, and compensation

This contract pays a fixed price of USD 100 for the requested work. The project uses AWS SageMaker for annotation tasks; the provided label type in project metadata is POLYGON and the declared data type is TEXT. Expect light, focused work and clear instructions from OpenTrain.

  • Pay: Fixed price USD 100
  • Estimated commitment: ~1 hour in a month (as requested in the posting)
  • Annotation tool: AWS SageMaker
  • Label type (metadata): POLYGON; Data type: TEXT

Who should apply and how it works

Apply if you want a short, flexible contracting opportunity contributing to AI training in the energy domain. This role suits someone who can set up their own equipment, follow instructions for brief writing and annotation tasks, and be punctual for occasional meetings.

To apply, submit your profile, a short note describing relevant experience, and list any cloud certifications. OpenTrain handles contracting and payment — once accepted, you will receive detailed instructions and onboarding steps.

  • Ideal for entry-level writers or annotators with an interest in energy topics.
  • Please list cloud certifications and any prior annotation or writing experience.
  • OpenTrain will provide the task brief and SageMaker access details after onboarding.
