190 new roles have been added to the board in the past ten days. This page lists the best paid of them, and it is worth checking early rather than late.
What the listings actually pay
Timing matters more in this market than in conventional hiring. Projects are staffed in batches and close when they are full, sometimes within days. A listing that is two weeks old is frequently already filled even though it is still visible elsewhere.

What moves your rate
One clear pattern in this batch: a large share are bilingual roles, and a noticeable number are safety evaluation work in languages other than English. If you speak a second language, right now is an unusually good moment to apply.
How to apply
Every role above links to its own page with the full requirements and a direct application link. Applications are completed on the hiring platform and typically take a few minutes, with a short skills assessment in place of an interview.
Two things are worth doing before you apply. Check whether the role accepts applicants from your country using the eligibility checker, and run the advertised rate through the take-home calculator, because this is contract work and the headline rate is before self-employment tax.
Frequently asked questions
How often is this page updated?
It is rebuilt whenever the board is refreshed, which is several times a week. Listings that close are removed rather than left to go stale.
How quickly should I apply?
Quickly. Projects staff in batches and close when full, often within days of posting, so a fresh listing is meaningfully better odds than an old one.
Why are so many of these bilingual?
Labs are currently expanding safety and evaluation work into languages beyond English, and that is where much of the new hiring is concentrated.
Do you remove closed listings?
Yes. A role is removed once we confirm directly that it has closed. We do not delete listings simply for dropping off a platform's index, because that produces false removals.
Can I get alerted to new roles?
The RSS feed carries the newest listings, and the newsletter sends a weekly summary. Both are linked from the footer of every page.
