Trust & Safety and AI training specialist improving model and human decision quality.
What I'm looking for
I am a Trust & Safety and AI training specialist with 8+ years improving human and model decision quality across US, EU, and APAC. I design prompt–response pairs, conversation flows, and evaluation rubrics; curate and label datasets; run human‑in‑the‑loop feedback loops; and perform rigorous factuality checks, tone/style alignment, and iterative error segmentation to raise LLM and speech/NLP accuracy while reducing harmful content exposure.
I have led multi‑BPO governance, built Power BI/SQL dashboards for drift detection, and structured training and policy enablement for large moderator and QA populations. Notable results include lifting pre‑appeal accuracy from 73.54% to 85% and sustaining 98–99% post‑appeal accuracy, doubling AI detection rates through improved labeling, and earning multiple special contribution awards for Trust & Safety initiatives.
