Job description

Legis1 is a political news company with a fresh approach. We combine structured data, artificial intelligence, and real editorial expertise to produce accurate, high-volume coverage of government, legislation, and elections. We're building something new - and we want great editors to help shape it.
POSITION
We are hiring a team of 7 junior editors on a consulting basis to help review, edit, and improve AI-generated political news content. This is a great entry point for someone early in their editing or journalism career who wants hands-on experience at the cutting edge of AI-assisted newsrooms.
You do not need to be a tech expert. You do need to care about accuracy, clear writing, and how government works.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Daily Content Review & Editing
  • Read and edit AI-generated news stories about legislation, elections, voting records, and government activity
  • Check facts - bill numbers, vote counts, committee actions, election results
  • Correct grammar, tone, clarity, and structure
  • Flag stories that need a closer look before publication

Quality Control
  • Follow editorial guidelines to make sure every story meets accuracy and style standards
  • Help identify patterns in errors so the team can improve the AI's output over time
  • Apply consistent standards across different story types (short briefs, summaries, reports)

Editorial Support
  • Support senior editors with workflow tasks and content management
  • Help maintain organized editorial queues in a fast-paced, high-volume environment
  • Contribute feedback on what's working and what isn'tå

REQUIREMENTS
Required
  • Bachelor's degree in Journalism, English, Political Science, Public Policy, or a related field
  • Some editing or writing experience - internships, campus media, freelance, or entry-level roles count
  • Basic understanding of how U.S. government and legislation work
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to catch factual errors
  • Comfortable working independently and managing your own task queue
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and general digital tools

Nice to Have
  • Any experience with political journalism, policy writing, or civic content
  • Familiarity with AI writing tools (ChatGPT, etc.)
  • Experience with content management systems (CMS)
  • Coursework or interest in data journalism or digital media

Salary/Rate: $18.00 - $20.00/per hour depending on skills and experience.
Consulting / Contract Position
Legis1 is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
