● Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve annotation tools, workflows, and operational efficiency.
● Guide data strategies and provide insights that inform product decisions, including the use of synthetic data,
to address gaps and support Responsible AI practices.
● Perform hands-on annotation for complex or sensitive tasks when needed, ensuring milestones and quality
standards are consistently met.
● Surface patterns found, identify emerging data needs, and advise on data priorities and product decisions.
● Design and implement end-to-end annotation processes supporting long-term sustainability, data reusability,
scalability, and ethical AI development.
What You’ll Bring:
● Minimum of 3 years of experience in data annotation or operations, with a focus on leadership
responsibilities.
● Linguistics background, specializing in language patterns and conversational dynamics for model training.
● Deep knowledge of annotation strategies, taxonomy best practices, and quality control methods.

decision-making.
● Demonstrated success in aligning data initiatives with product and engineering goals.
● Excellent communication skills, with experience guiding diverse teams through edge cases and evolving
task instructions.
● Familiarity with agentic systems, LLMs, or ML model training pipelines.
● Clear understanding of how high-quality data supports Responsible AI outcomes and enhances user
experiences.
● Ability to apply critical thinking to ambiguous or complex scenarios while following structured guidelines.
● Detail-oriented, committed to precision, operational excellence, and continuous improvement.
● Hands-on experience with annotation tools (e.g., LabelStudio, Sheets), project management platforms (e.g.,
Jira), and basic scripting languages (e.g., Python, R).● Collaborative approach to problem-solving, with a track record of bringing people together to meet shared
goals.
