About
Handshake AI
Overview
Handshake is looking for Merchandising & Category Management professionals to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a traditional job. You’ll draw on your hands-on experience with pricing strategy, markdown planning, and competitive analysis to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand merchandising and category management workflows and practices.
This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside research, teaching, postdoctoral work, or industry employment.

- This project involves using your professional experience and hands-on knowledge of the tools you use in your daily work to create expert-level training data and evaluate AI-generated responses for accuracy and relevance. No prior AI experience required.
- Fully remote with a flexible, asynchronous schedule and no minimum hour requirement; most contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when participating in an active project.
- Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.

At least 2 years of professional experience in merchandising, category management, or buying, in roles such as:
- Merchandiser

- Or equivalent roles in the retail industry
Hands-on experience with merchandising and category management workflows, including:
