Help shape how human potential is understood.

If youre the kind of person who enjoys untangling complexity, spotting subtle patterns, and asking thoughtful questions before settling on an answer, this might be the role youve been looking for.

Traditional admissions measures do a good job of assessing academic achievement, but they dont tell the whole story.

People are more than their grades.

Human skills like empathy, ethics, communication, resilience, and collaboration matter too, especially for the professionals our communities rely on every day.

Casper helps higher education programs better understand applicants human skills, giving them a more complete picture of each persons potential.

As a Senior Admissions Test Content Specialist, youll play an key role in making that possible.

Working alongside researchers, assessment specialists, and fellow content experts, youll help build the assessments that applicants complete and institutions rely on to make admissions decisions.

Youll use language, critical thinking, and judgment to ensure every assessment is clear, balanced, fair, and ready for use in high-stakes admissions decisions.

Beyond writing and reviewing assessment content, youll own recurring content workflows that keep our assessments accurate, consistent, and ready for use.

Youll coordinate review cycles, bring together perspectives from multiple contributors, and make decisions that balance evidence, quality, and fairness.

This isnt traditional content writing.

Its collaborative work that blends language, analytical thinking, and sound judgment to build assessments that help people be understood more completely.

This role requires professional fluency in English and French.

English is the primary language of collaboration across Acuity, while French is used as part of the assessment content youll help build and review.

This is a fully remote role open to candidates based anywhere in Canada.

Before you apply: Thoughtful use of AI is encouraged.

If you use it to support your application, make sure it helps communicate your experience clearly and accurately.

The strongest applications are authentic, original, and unmistakably yours.

The Work Youll Do Every Casper assessment is carefully assembled from a large library of scenarios, questions, and supporting content.

Building an assessment isnt simply a matter of selecting questions.

It requires hundreds of thoughtful decisions to ensure the final assessment is balanced, fair, and measures the human skills its designed to assess.

Thats where youll come in.

Working alongside experienced teammates, researchers, and reviewers, youll help transform individual pieces of content into complete admissions assessments.

Youll evaluate language, identify inconsistencies, balance competing considerations, and think carefully about how each decision shapes both the applicant experience and the quality of the assessment.

Some days youll refine wording to remove ambiguity.

Other days youll review how scenarios work together across an entire assessment, identify gaps, improve supporting resources, or prepare new content for future test cycles.

No two days look exactly alike, but almost every day involves asking thoughtful questions, weighing trade-offs, and making decisions where nuance matters.

As Casper continues to grow, youll also help improve how we build assessments by exploring new tools, including AI, that allow us to scale without compromising the quality, fairness, and care applicants and institutions expect.

In your first few months, youll: Learn how Casper assessments are designed, compiled, and reviewed alongside experienced teammates.

Explore opportunities to improve how we work, including using AI to streamline repetitive tasks while preserving the human judgment that underpins our assessments.

Collaborate with researchers, writers, reviewers, and production specialists to continuously improve how Casper is built.

Its about steadily building the judgment, confidence, and context to make thoughtful decisions that strengthen every assessment you contribute to.

In your first few months, success looks like: Building a strong understanding of how Casper assessments are designed, compiled, and reviewed.

Who Youll Work With Youll join Acuitys Assessment Content Team, the group responsible for bringing Casper to life, from developing new scenarios to building the final assessments applicants complete.

The work is highly collaborative.

Questions are encouraged, feedback is part of everyday work, and its common for teammates to think through difficult decisions together.

Some of the best ideas begin with, Im not sure about this or Can I get another perspective? Everyone reviews work, and everyones work is reviewed.

Thats intentional.

Its how we learn from one another, strengthen our thinking, and ensure every assessment meets the high standards applicants and institutions expect.

Youll work most closely with teammates who specialize in assessment compilation and review, learning from their experience as you build your own judgment and expertise.

Along the way, youll also collaborate with: Scenario developers and production specialists , who create the scenarios and video content that form the foundation of every Casper assessment.

Researchers and psychometricians , who help ensure our assessments are valid, reliable, and measure the human skills theyre designed to assess.
