  • Guide teams to ensure proper technical setup and workflow execution.
  • Communicate technical requirements and challenges effectively between annotators, clients, and internal teams.
  • Conduct regular spot checks and quality reviews of output to ensure data meets client standards.
  • Implement processes to track and improve quality metrics.
  • Continuously refine workflows and tools to enhance efficiency and deliver optimal outcomes.
  • What You'll Bring
  • 2+ years of client-facing program or project ownership, ideally within AI, data operations, consulting, or technical services.
  • 1-2 years in a technical solutions, sales engineering, or customer-facing role within Professional Services or Systems Engineering.
  • Experience with coding and querying languages such as SQL to conceptualize project requirements.
  • Solid grasp of AI/ML principles and workflows, including hands-on work with data annotation platforms.
  • Exceptional organizational and detail-oriented mindset.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
  • Excellent communication and storytelling skills to bridge technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Bachelor’s degree in a technical field (e.g., Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science) or equivalent experience.
  • Nice To Have
  • Experience leading AI data operations, delivery programs, or annotation teams at scale.
  • Familiarity with data quality metrics and processes for AI training datasets.
  • Knowledge of large language models (LLMs) or other advanced AI technologies.
  • Strong coding experience in one or more coding languages (Python preferred).
