Remote AI training or data annotation work where accuracy matters ranking responses, labelling data, checking model output. Open to bookkeeping and automation roles too. I work carefully, hit deadlines, and care about getting the details right.

@wellingtonphiri
AI Trainer and automation builder with a finance background. Big on accuracy, remote-ready, based in Johannesburg.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
I train and evaluate AI models ranking responses, flagging errors, improving quality and build automation workflows with n8n and Make.com. I recently built JobFit AI, an app that reads your CV and finds matching jobs. Before tech I worked in bookkeeping and tender admin, so I'm comfortable with numbers, detail, and getting things right. I studied accounting at Wits (two years). Remote-ready in Johannesburg, and I'm drawn to work where accuracy actually matters.
