@fridahkarimi
Certified operations professional experienced in data annotation and quality assurance.
What I'm looking for
I am a certified operations professional with strong experience in data annotation, quality checking, and customer-facing roles. I combine practical expertise with a disciplined approach to deliver accurate, high-quality datasets for AI and machine learning projects.
At Samasource I performed data labeling, object detection and segmentation, audio and text annotation, and quality control, consistently meeting deadlines and program requirements. I have experience reviewing and verifying the work of peers to ensure dataset consistency.
Previously I worked in customer service and hospitality roles where I developed excellent verbal and written communication, problem-solving, and client-relations skills. These roles strengthened my ability to work under pressure, learn quickly, and contribute positively to team goals.
I am self-driven, motivated by professional excellence, and eager to take on responsibilities that improve operational accuracy and efficiency. I seek roles where I can apply my annotation, QA, and customer-service experience to support impactful data projects.
