This is one of our favorite jobs, for the service it provides, and the company has reopened hiring. They also wrote us that there are no state hiring restrictions.

In a few words, Aira has developed technology that allows you to assist people who are blind or have low vision. Through this technology, they push a button and you see what’s in front of them.

As an Aira Agent you then assist them with the issue they’ve encountered — shopping, reading email, navigating walking routes, or other challenges.

As an Agent, using our proprietary technology platform, you will answer live video calls from our blind and low vision customers. You will then assist, one at a time, with real-time tasks in countless unique scenarios. Please note you will not be on camera during these live video calls.

From assisting with daily personal routines to professional activities to navigating a dream journey around the globe, Aira Agents focus on providing live, personalized support for each customer’s unique requirements during live calls….
