This description is a summary of our understanding of the job description. Click on 'Apply' button to find out more. Role Description You will make Grok extraordinarily adept at reading emotional subtext, social context, and user intent, then responding with perfect calibration. Responsibilities - Detect and interpret implied emotional states, attachment styles, and unspoken needs. - Teach models appropriate mirroring, boundary-setting, defusing, challenging, or comforting. - Detect and correct emotionally tone-deaf responses in AI-generated outputs. - Build datasets exposing dark-pattern social tactics (concern-trolling, gaslighting, etc.) so Grok remains immune. - Ensure cross-cultural sensitivity without performative overcorrection. Qualifications - Direct clinical experience with diverse populations (trauma, PTSD, personality disorders, neurodivergence, etc.). - Expertise in attachment theory, polyvagal theory, mentalization, or equivalent frameworks. - Demonstrated ability to read subtext and calibrate responses in high-stakes therapeutic or educational settings. - Familiarity with DSM-5 diagnostics and evidence-based interventions (CBT, DBT, trauma-focused modalities). - Strong ethical grounding and understanding of scope-of-practice boundaries. Preferred Qualifications - Active or past clinical licensure. - Experience supervising clinicians or teaching at the postgraduate level. - Published research or clinical writing on trauma, emotional regulation, or social cognition. - Public policy or advocacy experience around mental health. Location & Other Expectations - Tutor roles may be offered as full-time, part-time, or contractor positions, depending on role needs and candidate fit. - For contractor positions, hours will vary widely based on project scope and contractor availability, with no fixed commitments required. On average most projects may involve at least 10 hours per week to achieve deliverables effectively though this is not a fixed commitment and depends on the scope of work. - Contractors have full flexibility to set their own hours and determine the exact amount of time needed to complete deliverables. - Tutor roles may be performed remotely from any location worldwide, subject to legal eligibility, time-zone compatibility, and role specific needs. - For US based candidates, please note we are unable to hire in the states of Wyoming and Illinois at this time. - We are unable to provide visa sponsorship. - For those who will be working from a personal device, your computer must be a Chromebook, Mac with MacOS 11.0 or later, or Windows 10 or later. Compensation - US based candidates: $45/hour - $70/hour depending on factors including relevant experience, skills, education, geographic location, and qualifications. - International candidates: Information will be provided to you during the recruitment process. Benefits - Benefits vary based on employment type, location and jurisdiction. - Benefits for eligible U.S. based positions include health insurance, 401(k) plan, and paid sick leave. - Specific details and role specific information will be provided to you during the interview process.
