Responsibilities
- Design passages and questions about form, voice, craft and literary tradition.
- Write reference readings with specific textual evidence for each interpretation.
- Evaluate fidelity to the passage, interpretive depth and awareness of technique.
- Identify sophisticated-sounding claims that the words on the page do not support.
- Document the reasoning so another specialist can assess the conclusion.

An advanced degree in literature, English or comparative literature or a closely related discipline and at least two years of relevant teaching, research, editorial or published literary work are required. Bring depth in close reading across relevant periods, genres or traditions, clear written English and availability for at least ten hours per week.
Preferred experience
A PhD, peer-reviewed publications, editorial or creative craft experience, or reading knowledge beyond English.
Deliverables and engagement

Pay and engagement
Pay is $55 $105/hr in USD. IXO will agree the scope, deliverables and schedule before work begins.
