About the role
Design and govern systems for collecting, structuring, and delivering human data to train frontier AI models, with a focus on task design, evaluation methodology, and scalable data pipelines for SFT, RLHF, and model evaluation.
Responsibilities
- Architect end-to-end data workflows — from task design through quality assurance and delivery — ensuring data is well-structured for post-training purposes (e.g., SFT, RL, model evaluation).
- Design collection structures and task frameworks that translate client needs into scalable data generation processes.
- Build and monitor data quality frameworks to catch problems before they reach the client.
- Partner with engineering and product teams to improve data pipelines, enhancing throughput without sacrificing quality.
- Translate patterns in data quality and project structure into actionable insights for project design, client deliverables, and product development.
Qualifications
- Experience designing human data collection at scale (e.g., computational cognitive science, HCI, crowdsourcing research)
- Familiarity with ML post-training paradigms (SFT, RL) and how data quality decisions map to model outcomes
- Strong technical skills across data pipelines
- Systems-level thinking about how task design affects training data
- Excellent communication skills to explain measurement concepts to engineers and constraints to researchers
