xAI hires AI Tutors directly, split between language roles (Arabic through Yoruba) and subject specialties like software engineering, humanities, legal & compliance, and video. Nearly all are listed as Remote International. Hired directly by xAI rather than through a gig platform, so compensation follows full-time / contract employment norms. xAI's board also carries a large volume of corporate and datacenter-construction hiring, which we do not list.
