What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my data annotation skills in a collaborative environment focused on AI and machine learning advancements.

I am a detail-oriented Data Annotator with 4 years of experience specializing in labeling and annotating datasets for computer vision applications. My proficiency with annotation tools such as LabelImg, CVAT, and VGG Image Annotator has enabled me to ensure high-quality labeled datasets essential for machine learning model training. I have a strong understanding of object detection, segmentation, and classification tasks, which allows me to contribute effectively to various projects.

During my tenure at CloudFactory Kenya, I successfully annotated over 10,000 images for object detection and segmentation tasks, achieving more than 90% annotation accuracy through rigorous quality checks. My collaboration with machine learning engineers to refine annotation guidelines has been instrumental in improving model performance. Additionally, my role as a Data Labeling Specialist at Remotasks involved labeling 5,000+ traffic images and assisting in data augmentation, which significantly enhanced dataset diversity for research purposes.
