About the role
Encord is hiring a Human Data Operations & Solutions Engineer to bridge technical sales and hands-on data operations, delivering small-scale annotated data samples and proofs of concept for enterprise customers, with a focus on robotics and autonomous driving.
Responsibilities
- Partner with Account Executives to lead the technical and operational strategy for complex enterprise sales cycles, co-owning the path to a successful proof of concept
- Lead deep technical discovery sessions with ML Engineers, MLOps leaders, and non-technical stakeholders to understand data requirements and design the right annotation workflow
- Manage end-to-end delivery of small-scale annotation POCs — translating complex AI requirements into clear instructions for annotation specialists, auditing outputs, and iterating on quality until the sample is client-ready
- Build and deliver tailored demonstrations that combine platform capability with live, real-world annotation results — particularly for robotics, autonomous driving, and multimodal sensor data (LiDAR, camera fusion, etc.)
- Act as a trusted advisor to clients on annotation workflow design, data quality, and the operational processes that underpin model performance
- Provide structured feedback and guidance to annotation teams during POC delivery, ensuring outputs meet the quality bar required to win client confidence
- Translate findings and operational results into clear value propositions for senior, non-technical stakeholders
- Serve as the voice of the customer to Product and Engineering, channelling detailed technical feedback from enterprise clients to shape the roadmap
Qualifications

- Technically fluent: you can query a database, write a Python script to automate a workflow, or dig into annotation outputs to identify quality issues
- A natural communicator who can run a compelling demo and explain what it means to a VP in plain language
- Genuinely passionate about AI, with interest in robotics, autonomous driving, and data operations for physical AI
