Opportunity Overview
Handshake is looking for skilled LibreSprite 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.
Who This Is For
This is a good fit if you're an experienced LibreSprite 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 LibreSprite
Annotating or labeling game art assets
Creating game assets following style guides or project briefs
Reviewing game art for quality, accuracy, or stylistic consistency
What You'll Do
You'll use your experience with LibreSprite 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.
Qualifications
We're looking for people who have:
Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience with LibreSprite, 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
Work Model and Project Details
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
