Remote jobs in Italy: AI-training roles open to Italian residents

Updated 28 October 2026 · Data: OpenJob catalogue, checked daily on each platform’s official page

If you live in Italy, you can apply to two kinds of remote AI-training jobs: roles that explicitly list Italy among eligible countries, and roles the platform opens to applicants worldwide. The first group is mostly language work in Italian; the second is mostly English-language expert work, and it is where most of the higher published rates are.

Today’s numbers

  • Open roles that list Italy as an eligible country: 46 (20 with a published hourly rate; median starting rate $30/hour).
  • Open roles available worldwide with a published hourly rate: 117 (median starting rate $50/hour).
  • Applying is always free and happens on the platform’s official site.

Read pay and eligibility separately

A “remote” label does not replace residency requirements, and an hourly range does not guarantee available hours. Pay per task cannot be compared directly with an hourly rate. OpenJob shows pay only when the platform publishes it and keeps “up to” figures out of minimum-pay filters.

Frequently asked questions

Can I work remotely from Italy for a US AI company?

Yes, when the listing accepts Italy or applicants worldwide. You usually work as an independent contractor rather than an employee, so check the contract terms and how payments are made before you start.

Do I need to speak Italian?

Only for Italian-language roles. Many worldwide roles are in English and look for professional expertise, such as law, finance, medicine, engineering or software, rather than a specific native language.

How are these earnings taxed in Italy?

Occasional work for a foreign client is often declared as “prestazione occasionale”; regular work usually needs a VAT number (partita IVA). The right setup depends on your situation, so ask an Italian accountant (commercialista) before you start.

Is there a version of this page in Italian?

Yes: Lavoro da casa online: offerte vere e verificate covers the same jobs in Italian, with a guide to spotting scams.
