rate as listed

Workload: ~15h/week
Engagement: Project-based
Location: Worldwide
Field: Creative

Use Krita to create and edit digital illustrations, concept art, character work, animations, and other visual assets for AI training. The work also requires screen recording and precise, step-by-step explanations of how brushes, layers, masks, color tools, and other techniques were used.

The work

This remote contractor role involves completing realistic digital art assignments in Krita. Tasks may include digital painting, illustration, concept art, character design, visual asset creation, and refinement of 2D animations. You will use tools such as brushes, layers, masks, and color management while recording your screen and documenting each workflow step by step.

What screening is likely to cover

Expect the platform to look for concrete evidence of professional Krita use, including examples that show sound construction, controlled brushwork, layer organization, masking, and color decisions. Screening may also test whether you can explain why you chose a particular workflow, diagnose problems in an artwork, and write instructions or prompts that another artist could follow. A portfolio, character design or game art experience, a relevant master's degree or PhD, and previous data annotation, RLHF, or AI model evaluation work are preferred rather than stated requirements. English proficiency at B2 level or higher is required.

Practical details

The role is remote and requires access to Krita plus the ability to record your screen while working. The listing describes contractor work but does not specify whether scheduling is fully async, the expected weekly commitment, or typical working hours, so candidates should confirm those points during onboarding.

Interview prep — 10 questions

Matched to what this platform's screening actually measures. Answer each out loud in 60–90 seconds: claim → concrete example → implication.

What it tests: This tests whether your Krita experience is verifiable through a specific deliverable, personal responsibilities, tool choices, and project constraints rather than general familiarity with the application.
A strong answer: Use one concrete project and explain its purpose, your ownership, the Krita features you used, and the final output. Include a constraint or revision that shows how you adapted the workflow.
Where people lose it: Candidates lose points by describing a team project without separating their own work, or by naming Krita tools without connecting them to actual production decisions.
