Yoruba AI Product Tester

## The Project

Productive Playhouse is building a talent pool of Yoruba speakers for an upcoming project testing and evaluating leading AI chatbots. The objective is to enhance response quality through direct user interaction with the various AI models.

Open to freelancers based outside the U.S.

This is more than one job. Apply once, and we'll keep you in mind for this project ? and future ones that need your language skills.

## The Details

We?re looking for independent contractor engagement (task-based - project-based).

? You choose which tasks to take, set your own hours, and are free to work with other clients any time. You can stay flexible as the project evolves.

? This is an iterative project, work arrives in batches (there may be pauses between them).

## What You?ll Do

As an AI Evaluator, you'll play a critical role in shaping and improving the next generation of Generative AI. You'll participate in structured, hands-on evaluations by interacting directly with various AI models to assess their capabilities, safety, and helpfulness. Your insights and data will directly inform model development and optimization.

Exact tasks vary by project and will be spelled out in that project's Statement of Work (SOW) before you start. Depending on the role, your work may include:

? Testing and evaluating AI chatbots or language models through structured conversations, using assigned goals and prompts.

? Voice-based interactions with AI models ? for projects that involve this, sessions are recorded, and audio may be shared with the client as part of the evaluation deliverable.

? Submitting deliverables (write-ups, ratings, screenshots, or recordings) in the format each task specifies.

## What We're Looking For

? Native or expert-level fluency in Yoruba, as spoken in Nigeria

? Strong English reading, writing, and communication skills - assessment maybe required

? 18 years of age or older

? Hands-on experience using AI models or large language models

? Comfortable with both written and voice-based conversation ? and good at asking sharp follow-ups

? Your own smartphone, computer, reliable internet, and comfort with web-based tools

? Able to pass a language proficiency assessment and AI evaluation task

? Responsive communicator ? quick replies move you through onboarding faster

? Able to start within 48 hours

## Why PPH?

? Your language skills are the whole point ? and this project pays for them

? Apply once, get contacted directly when a spot opens ? no chasing

? Work from anywhere, on your own schedule, alongside any other work you do

? Clear task specs, no ongoing oversight, no micromanagement

? Real project experience with a global data and language services company

? Work that actually improves how AI understands your language

## About Productive Playhouse

We started by teaching kids through award-winning programming. We grew into a global data and language services company trusted by clients worldwide. But the mission never changed: keep language alive.

Transcription, translation, localization, linguistic analysis, AI evaluation ? it all comes back to preserving languages and the cultures they carry.

All engagements are contingent upon successful completion of identity verification. Productive Playhouse is an equal opportunity organization headquartered in California and committed to diversity and inclusion across our global workforce. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and abilities, regardless of location or engagement type. For accommodations or inquiries, please contact hr@productiveplayhouse.com.

Please submit your CV in English and indicate your level of English proficiency.

Mindrift connects specialists with project-based AI opportunities for leading tech companies, focused on testing, evaluating, and improving AI systems. Participation is project-based, not permanent employment.

## What This Opportunity Involves

We're building a dataset to evaluate AI coding agents - how well a model handles real-world developer tasks.

You'll create challenging tasks and evaluation criteria within realistic simulated environments:

? Build realistic developer environments - a virtual company with codebase, infrastructure, and context (tickets, docs, conversations) that forms a believable development history

? Design tasks from intermediate states of these environments - craft the prompt, define what "solved" means, and ensure the task is solvable by an AI agent

? Write tests that verify agent solutions - accept all valid approaches and reject incorrect ones, neither too strict nor too lenient

? Iterate on tasks and tests based on QA feedback - review agent solutions, analyze failures, and refine until the evaluation is fair and robust

## What This Is Not

? Not data labeling

? Not prompt engineering

? Not writing code from scratch - the agent writes most of the code; you guide and evaluate

## What We Look For

? 5+ years in software development

? Core stack: Python (FastAPI), JavaScript/TypeScript (React), Docker, Postgres, Kafka, Redis

? Experience writing tests (functional, integration)

? English proficiency - B2+

## Why This Is Hard

Frontier models are already good at coding. Creating a task that genuinely challenges the best models is non-trivial. You need to deeply understand where models fail and what scenarios reveal the difference between a good and a bad solution. Tasks have many valid solutions - writing tests that accept all correct solutions and reject incorrect ones is harder than it sounds.

## How It Works

Apply, pass qualification(s), join a project, complete tasks, and get paid.

## Compensation

Up to $50/hr equivalent, depending on level and pace. Tasks are estimated at approximately 20 hours each; you set your own schedule.
