Key Responsibilities

  • Generate and validate high-quality data annotations, based on guidelines and continuous feedback, for the development and evaluation of AI models

  • Surface systemic issues, edge cases, and gaps in guidelines back to annotation operations and technical stakeholders

  • Produce annotations yourself when needed, modeling the quality bar expected of the team

  • Build and maintain internal tools and automation that streamline annotator workflows such as visualization dashboards, batch configuration scripts, output management utilities, and similar

  • Troubleshoot environment, tooling, and CLI/git issues for annotators on their local machines, liaising with IT and engineering as needed

    • About you

  • A degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field. Alternatively, 2 to 5 years of professional experience in software engineering, technical support, or developing tools

  • Hands-on experience using code agents (e.g. Mistral’s vibe) in your own development workflow, and genuine interest in how they're evolving

  • Proficient in at least one programming language (e.g. Python, JavaScript, or similar), with enough breadth to read and reason about code across a few core languages

  • Able to apply consistent judgment against a rubric and surface edge cases, ambiguities, or gaps in guidelines

  • Sustained focus and accuracy on detail-oriented, high-volume review work

  • Comfortable working in a Unix-like terminal: shell basics, package managers, environment setup, and git workflows (branches, merges, resolving conflicts)

  • Able to troubleshoot local development environment issues (dependencies, virtual environments, paths, permissions) across common operating systems

  • Professional proficiency in English, with strong writing and comprehension skills

    • Nice to have

  • Prior experience in data annotation for AI/ML, especially LLM training (SFT, RLHF, preference data), evals/benchmarks, or agentic data

  • Experience building an annotation team through interviews and training

  • Experience supporting technical users or troubleshooting developer environments (internal tools support, DevRel, teaching assistant for coding courses, etc.)

  • Fluency across multiple programming languages, or domain depth in one of: frontend, backend, DevOps, MLOps, data engineering

  • Familiarity with rubric-based evaluation concepts, inter-annotator agreement, or quality measurement for human-labeled data

  • Experience developing, deploying, and managing internal tooling or automation scripts
