@rosalindsmith
Detail-oriented professional with expertise in AI data annotation.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and analytical professional with a strong background in AI data annotation and editorial review. Over the past eight years, I have executed high-accuracy data annotation and quality review tasks to train and refine large-scale AI and language models across diverse content domains. My projects have required a deep understanding of complex guidelines and linguistic precision, ensuring compliance with evolving annotation and editorial standards.
In my role as a Senior LLM Specialist at Appen Ltd, I have reviewed, edited, and annotated a wide range of text and visual content, supporting nuanced use cases such as tone detection and intent classification. I have conducted comprehensive quality assurance audits and served as a subject matter expert on annotation workflows, developing training documentation and operational guides for remote teams across multiple time zones. My commitment to fostering team-wide productivity is evident in my mentorship of junior annotators and editors, as well as my facilitation of calibration sessions to align interpretation across teams.
Previously, I worked as a Finance Manager, where I oversaw a large retail sales function and managed month-end accounts, budgeting, and strategic planning. My diverse experience, combined with my passion for AI and critical thinking skills, positions me to contribute effectively to impactful data annotation and model training initiatives.
