What the work involves

micro1 is looking for professional photographers to help train AI systems by supplying high-quality images and photographic expertise. The work is descriptive rather than creative on the day: you provide accurate descriptions, labels and contextual information for visual material, analyze and explain what is in an image so models can interpret it correctly, and organize, review and submit that data to project guidelines and deadlines. You also work with project coordinators to keep deliverables aligned with what the training actually needs, which means taking feedback and adjusting the labelling conventions as the project sharpens them. It suits someone who already reads an image the way a photographer does, in terms of light, composition, subject and intent, and can put that reading into plain language consistently across a large volume.

Contractor role, fully remote, 50 openings. No AI experience is required.

What you'll do

  • Provide accurate descriptions, labels and contextual information to support AI training
  • Analyze and explain visual content so AI systems can better interpret it
  • Collaborate with project coordinators to align deliverables with training requirements
  • Organize, review and submit high-quality data to project guidelines and deadlines
  • Apply feedback and keep labelling conventions consistent across submissions

Requirements & eligibility

  • Professional photography experience in portraits, landscapes, commercial or editorial work
  • Experience using cameras and editing software such as Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom
  • A strong portfolio showing high-quality, consistent work
  • Good written and verbal communication skills
  • Able to follow instructions, incorporate feedback and meet deadlines
  • Experience working remotely
  • Plus: experience writing image descriptions, captions or metadata
