AI/ML operations and evaluation at Awarri, leading 100 professionals on multimodal data for proprietary AI models.
What I'm looking for
At Hugo Technologies, I worked across machine-learning data annotation, quality assurance, and project coordination. As a Quality Analyst, I monitored annotation pipelines, helped implement quality-assurance processes, and reported annotation accuracy of 95–99% in the work described in my CV.
At Awarri, I led a team of 100 professionals delivering image, text, audio, and video annotation and validation for proprietary AI model development and evaluation. I trained annotators for an internal LLM data-quality initiative and analysed quality trends and recurring errors to share improvement plans with stakeholders.
At Pallon, I audited inspection imagery for misclassification, missed defects, and inaccurate bounding-box alignment. I also used AI-assisted workflows to identify and report defects in sewer and manhole inspection footage.
I’m seeking to build on this practical foundation through empirical research into evaluation reliability, scalable oversight, safeguards, and the reliability of human feedback. My certifications include AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner.
