Game Artist - AI Trainer

Opportunity Overview

Handshake is looking for skilled Libre Sprite 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 pixel art, sprite creation, or 2D game asset design to evaluate AI‑generated content and provide feedback that helps AI better understand visual tasks and game art workflows.

This is an ongoing, project‑based opportunity you can take on alongside anything else you have going on.

This is a good fit if you're an experienced Libre Sprite user who has worked in or around roles like:

• Pixel Artist or Game Artist
• Indie Game Developer
• 2D Animator or Game Asset Designer

You should have solid experience with one or more of the following:

• Sprite creation, pixel art, or 2D game asset design using Libre Sprite
• Annotating or labeling game art assets
• Creating game assets following style guides or project briefs
• Reviewing game art for quality, accuracy, or stylistic consistency

You'll use your experience with Libre Sprite to create tool‑related questions and review AI‑generated responses for accuracy and relevance to real‑world pixel art and game asset workflows.

No prior AI or technical experience is required.

We're looking for people who have:

• Minimum 3 years of hands‑on experience with Libre Sprite, whether through professional work or freelance projects
• A working knowledge of pixel art and 2D game asset concepts and workflows
• Strong written communication skills and attention to detail
• The ability to work independently and follow written guidelines

• 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

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