Content & Literature Specialist

Role Overview

Keystone Recruitment is partnering with a client to engage experienced literature professionals on a project basis. As a Content & Literature Specialist, you will develop diverse datasets of tasks designed to assess and enhance AI systems’ performance in complex literary interpretation, synthesis, and analytical reasoning.

The expected commitment is 10+ hours per week, with task types including both short-form and long-form assignments such as summarization, synthesis, and open/closed QA. The role features a deliverables-driven structure with expert review layers and quality benchmarks, and offers flexible scheduling for independent contractors.

• 2+ years of experience in literary teaching, research, or publishing.
• Strong grounding in both canonical and contemporary literary works.
