We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for education professionals experienced in curriculum design, instructional design, academic research, teaching, training, document understanding, multi-step instruction following, task authoring, and rubric development.
This role supports current and upcoming remote consulting opportunities focused on education-domain benchmark task design, professional document understanding, structured instruction-following evaluation, ground truth output creation, rubric development, and high-quality project execution.

- Incorporate web research, file-based reasoning, or structured data where appropriate

Ground Truth & Rubric Design
- Define clear ground truth outputs for each authored task
