About The Role
YourStory runs the Nucleus AI content desk — a system that combines AI tools with human execution to produce timely, high-quality content. We're hiring an AI Content Executive to be the human hands on this pipeline: someone who can pick up an assignment, use our AI tools to research and draft it, add visuals, and get it publish-ready fast.
If you're excited about working with AI daily, love the pace of a newsroom, and take pride in getting things right the first time, this role is for you.
What You'll Do Day-to-day
- Use AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity) to research the topic
- Draft the article using our existing templates and prompt frameworks
- Generate relevant images using AI image tools (Midjourney / DALL-E / Ideogram)
- Do basic image editing and layout work in Canva
- Fact-check every claim in the AI-generated draft against primary sources before submitting
- Submit publish-ready drafts within these turnaround times:
- Breaking news: 30 minutes
- Trend pieces and short explainers: 1–2 hours
- Longer explainers and features: same day
- Monitor news and social platforms during your shift to flag trending topics
- Incorporate editor feedback quickly and cleanly
- Be responsive during major news cycles (defined shift hours, not 24/7)
What We're Looking For
Must have
- Strong written English — clean grammar, tight sentences, no fluff
- Comfort with AI tools (you've used ChatGPT / Claude regularly and know how to prompt)
- Ability to work fast without sacrificing accuracy
- Basic Canva skills (resizing, text overlays, simple layouts)
- Strong fact-checking instinct — you don't trust AI output blindly
- Willingness to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
Nice to have
- 1-2 years in digital media, journalism, or content writing
- Portfolio of published work (blog posts, articles, newsletters — anything shows you can write)
- Basic understanding of what makes a good headline
- Experience with AI image generation tools
- Curiosity about how AI content workflows are built (not required to be technical — just interested in learning)
Skills: photo editing,prompting,content writing
