What is a Ghostwriting job?

A ghostwriting job involves writing content—such as books, articles, speeches, or blog posts—on behalf of another person who is credited as the author. Ghostwriters typically work anonymously and do not receive public recognition for their work. They collaborate closely with clients to capture their voice, style, and ideas. This type of writing is common in publishing, business, and entertainment industries.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Ghostwriting position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Ghostwriter, you need exceptional writing abilities, research skills, and adaptability to various styles and tones, typically supported by experience in writing, journalism, or communications. Familiarity with word processing software, plagiarism checkers, and project management tools is often required. Strong interpersonal skills, discretion, and the ability to understand and emulate a client's voice make candidates stand out. These competencies ensure the delivery of compelling, authentic content that meets client specifications while maintaining confidentiality.

What types of clients or industries do ghostwriters typically work with?

Ghostwriters collaborate with a diverse range of clients, including business leaders, authors, academics, celebrities, and organizations seeking help with books, articles, speeches, blogs, and more. The industries span publishing, corporate communications, public relations, health, finance, tech, and beyond, offering a wide variety of subject matter. This diversity allows ghostwriters to constantly learn and grow while adapting their writing to different audiences and goals. Building a broad portfolio can open doors to higher-profile projects and long-term partnerships.

Engineer in Residence: Research Coach

Contractor

Job description

AI is making it trivially easy for students to skip the hard parts of research. This role is to build an AI research coach for high school students that teaches the research process through guided coaching not ghostwriting so students come out stronger thinkers, not just better at hiding AI use.

What you'll build
A guided workflow for question refinement, source review, note-taking, drafting support, and rubric-aware feedback.
Citation verification grounded in real scholarly sources rather than generic model claims.
A transparent authorship log that distinguishes student-written work from AI scaffolding or suggestions.
Optional sandboxed experimentation or code execution where computational work is part of the research process.
What you'll do
Own the user journey from early research question to draft refinement and evidence review.
Design guardrails that enforce coaching behavior instead of drifting into ghostwriting.
Build multi-step agentic workflows with strong traceability, citation grounding, and failure handling.
Talk to students, parents, or educators to learn where the process helps versus harms.
Work with AI Fund's build team on product positioning, pedagogy, and technical tradeoffs.
What you need
  • Strong full-stack engineering ability and real hands-on experience shipping multi-step GenAI systems.
  • Experience with citation grounding, retrieval, agent orchestration, evals, or developer-tool style workflows.
  • Product judgment around trust, educational integrity, and how much help a student should receive.
  • A bias toward clear UX for complex workflows rather than impressive but brittle demos.
  • You know how to use AI coding assistants and modern AI tools to increase speed without surrendering product judgment.
  • US work authorization. We are unable to sponsor visas for this role.
Helpful but not required
Edtech experience or a personal connection to research education.
Experience building code sandboxes, notebook-style tools, or pedagogy-heavy products.
Experience with LangGraph, Claude Agent SDK, or similar workflow tooling.
Who this is for
A builder who cares about teaching and believes AI should make students stronger thinkers, not better cheaters.
Someone who wants a product problem that combines deep workflow design, safety, and clear commercial demand.
What to know upfront
This is a 12-week, full-time, on-site residency in Mountain View, California.
Not every residency becomes a company. The goal is to pressure-test the idea quickly and honestly with real users and customers.
You will be building an AI Fund idea, not bringing your own startup idea into the program.
The process typically includes a Builder Event or equivalent working conversation, then a 48-hour Builder Challenge, then panel review with AI Fund build leadership.
The compensation is intentionally modest during the residency because the upside, if the idea works, is a founder-level role.
Compensation
$10,000/month for 12 weeks ($30,000 total). This is a contract role during the residency. If the build leads to a funded company, the next step is a founder-level role with meaningful equity upside.
$10,000 - $10,000 a month
This is a 12-week, on-site residency in Mountain View, CA ($10K/month). You will work directly with Andrew Ng to take this idea from concept to working product. If the idea validates, you become a co-founder. AI Fund writes a $1M check at a $4M valuation. We are only considering candidates within commuting distance from Mountain View. As part of the interview process, you will be asked to complete a Builder Challenge.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.
