[Hiring] Inkscape Specialist - AI Trainer @Handshake

Role Description

Handshake is looking for skilled Inkscape users to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional job. You'll draw on your hands-on experience with vector design, logo creation, or print and web graphics to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand visual tasks and creative workflows. This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity you can take on alongside anything else you have going on.

Qualifications

• Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience with Inkscape, whether through professional work or freelance projects.
• A working knowledge of vector design concepts and workflows.
• Strong written communication skills and attention to detail.
• The ability to work independently and follow written guidelines.

Requirements

• Experience in roles like Graphic Designer, Visual Designer, Brand Designer, UI Designer, Print or Web Designer.
• Solid experience with one or more of the following:
  • Vector illustration, logo design, or icon creation using Inkscape.
  • Annotating or labeling graphic design assets.
  • Creating design assets from structured briefs or brand guidelines.
  • Reviewing vector graphics for quality, precision, or design consistency.

Benefits

• Status: Independent contractor (not a full-time employee role).
• Location: Fully remote; work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection and access to a desktop or laptop computer.
• Schedule: Flexible and asynchronous, with no minimum hour requirement. Many contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when assigned to an active project.
• Duration: The Handshake AI program runs year-round, with projects opening periodically across different areas of expertise. Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.

Application Process

• Create a Handshake account.
• Upload your resume and verify your identity.
• Get matched and onboarded into relevant projects.
• Start working and earning.

Work Authorization

• Must be currently residing in the United States.
• F-1 students who are eligible for CPT or OPT may be eligible for projects on Handshake AI. Work with your Designated School Official to determine your eligibility. If your school requires a CPT course, Handshake AI may not meet your school's requirements. STEM OPT is not supported.
