About the role
Category Manager is a remote review track for evaluating AI outputs across category manager specialist operations workflows. Reviewers grade workflow correctness, policy adherence, and stakeholder fit; flag operational risk; and document the right next step so the modeling team can train on it.
Category Manager specialist operations AI has to fit into an actual day at work. AuraOne uses experienced operators to grade outputs the way a senior peer would — checking workflow, policy, and the unwritten rules that decide whether a task actually gets done.
Judge tool-use tasks and enterprise agent behavior. Operational judgment is the skill.
Responsibilities
- Review AI outputs against current category manager specialist operations workflows, playbooks, and firm policy for Category Manager assignments.
- Grade tone, escalation logic, and stakeholder fit on a structured rubric.
- Flag operational risk, missed escalations, and policy-adherence gaps with severity tags.
- Capture the right next step so the modeling team can train on it.
- Adjudicate disputed treatments against published playbooks or firm guidance.
What you should bring
- Direct working experience in category manager specialist operations on real teams for Category Manager work.
- Comfort applying multi-page rubrics consistently across long batches.
- Clear written reasoning that names the policy or workflow being applied.
- Strong attention to detail and the ability to flag when a prompt itself is the problem.
- Reliable async availability for at least 10 hours per week.
Role signals

- Audit a 25-row batch for rubric consistency and report drift to the program lead.
Useful experience
