Role Type: Contractor (at least ~15 hs a week)
Location: Remote, US-based preferred.
micro1 is engaging Human Intelligence Collectors to contribute their expertise in elicitation and investigative questioning on a specialized customer project. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This opportunity is ideal for those with a background in complex interviewing or intelligence collection, and a keen ability to interpret subtle verbal and behavioral cues. Your written and verbal communication skills will play a pivotal role as you document your reasoning and analysis for technical and non-specialist audiences alike.
Scope of Work
Conduct or assess structured elicitation and interview sessions to extract accurate and relevant information from varied subjects
Establish rapport with participants to encourage open communication without applying pressure or coercion
Analyze responses in real-time, reading tone, pacing, and nonverbal cues, and dynamically adjusting questioning strategies
Assess the internal consistency, reliability, and potential evasiveness of responses, providing confidence assessments for each interaction
Identify and annotate emotional and motivational drivers influencing participants' responses
Document your analytical reasoning in a clear, traceable manner to support downstream review and learning
Score or annotate sessions according to a detailed rubric, maintaining objectivity and consistency across multiple cases
Preferred qualifications
3–5+ years of experience in professional interviewing, intelligence elicitation, or investigative questioning (e.g., military HUMINT, law-enforcement interviewing, skilled negotiation)
Training in recognized interviewing methodologies such as the PEACE model, cognitive interviewing, or similar frameworks
Expertise in real-time interpretation of paralinguistic and nonverbal cues (tone, pacing, hesitation, gestures)
Demonstrated ability to clearly justify analytical reads in writing, not just by intuition
Exceptional written English skills with a focus on clarity, precision, and defensibility
Experience working with diverse populations or through interpreters
Familiarity with data annotation, AI model evaluation, or after-action/assessment report writing
