micro1 is selecting Reporters & Correspondents to contribute document-driven articles to a customer’s project, focusing on in-depth research and accurate, factual storytelling. 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.

  • Craft concise, clear, and context-rich summaries or full-length articles based on provided document sets.
  • Participate in iterative editorial reviews, incorporating feedback to enhance clarity, structure, and factual consistency.
  • Document research methods and citation trails for transparency and future reference within the project.
  • Communicate findings effectively in both written and verbal formats, collaborating with project stakeholders as needed.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Minimum of 4 years reporting or correspondent experience at a recognized media outlet.
  • Proven expertise in document-heavy beats such as investigative journalism, business, or science reporting.
  • Demonstrated excellence in synthesizing large volumes of material into engaging, structured narratives.
  • Track record of rigorous source validation, fact-checking, and verifiable reporting (not opinion or commentary).
