Strong pattern-recognition and analytical skills with the ability to identify objects, attributes, relationships, movements, inconsistencies, and anomalies across datasets. Experience working within quality-driven environments where performance is measured through accuracy, precision, throughput, and compliance metrics. Ability to identify ambiguous cases, escalate inconsistencies, and adapt quickly to evolving project requirements and annotation standards. Strong computer proficiency and ability to learn new annotation tools, workflows, and AI data platforms quickly. Ability to work independently while maintaining productivity, accuracy, and quality targets in a fast-paced environment. Excellent written communication skills and ability to document rationale for annotation decisions. Demonstrated ability to accept and incorporate feedback through calibration sessions, quality audits, and continuous improvement processes. Preferred Qualifications Experience with computer vision annotation techniques such as: Bounding boxes Classification Semantic or instance segmentation Object tracking Visual QA validation Experience working on autonomous vehicle, robotics, aerial imagery, security camera, geospatial, mapping, or machine vision projects. Experience with multimodal AI datasets, including image, video, audio, text, sensor, or geospatial data. Experience performing annotation quality audits or peer reviews. Familiarity with computer vision concepts and machine learning data pipelines. Experience with Generative AI evaluation, RLHF, preference data, or model-response evaluation programs. Additional language proficiency. ## Description We are seeking Data Annotation Specialists to support the development of next-generation AI and machine learning systems. The initial emphasis of this role will be computer vision and multimodal datasets, including image and video, with opportunities to support additional data types and annotation workflows as project needs evolve. Specialists will perform high-volume annotation, validation, and quality review tasks across AI training datasets. Computer vision work may include bounding boxes, object segmentation, classification, object tracking, and visual quality review. Additional projects may involve multimodal data such as text, audio, sensor, geospatial, or other structured and unstructured data. The ideal candidate is highly detail-oriented, thrives in fast-paced environments, and can consistently apply complex guidelines to make accurate decisions across large-scale datasets. Day-to-Day Responsibilities Accurately annotate and validate AI training datasets according to project-specific guidelines. Perform computer vision annotation tasks such as: Bounding boxes Semantic and instance segmentation Classification and categorization Object tracking Visual quality validation Support additional annotation modalities and workflows as project needs evolve, including text, audio, sensor, geospatial, or multimodal data. Review data and apply project-specific guidelines consistently. Identify edge cases and escalate ambiguous labeling scenarios. Maintain high levels of quality, consistency, and productivity. Participate in quality audits, calibration exercises, and guideline reviews. Collaborate with peers and leads to improve annotation workflows. Provide feedback on tooling, workflows, annotation guidelines, and data quality. ## Related Videos - [How computers learn to see – Applying AI to industry](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/756-how-computers-learn-to-see-applying-ai-to-industry) - [Your imaginations is (no longer) the limit: how Generative AI empowers people to be creative](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/741-your-imaginations-is-no-longer-the-limit-how-generative-ai-empowers-people-to-be-creative) - [Alibaba Big Data and Machine Learning Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/37-alibaba-big-data-and-machine-learning-technology) - [AI for decision-making in Tech Recruiting](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1074-ai-for-decision-making-in-tech-recruiting) - [The shadows that follow the AI generative models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/624-the-shadows-that-follow-the-ai-generative-models) - [PySpark - Combining Machine Learning & Big Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/44-pyspark-combining-machine-learning-big-data) ## Related Articles - [Got AI ideas but no money?
