our client has the ideal role for you. We’re looking for an
AI Data Trainer (aka The Model Mentor) to prepare, label, and refine data that directly impacts the performance and learning of AI algorithms across diverse applications.
As an AI Data Trainer at
our client, you’ll collaborate with data scientists, machine learning engineers, and product teams to curate, clean, and label datasets. Your work will be instrumental in teaching AI models how to understand and respond to real-world scenarios, from image recognition to natural language understanding.
Key Responsibilities Refine and Clean Datasets: Collaborate on Annotation Guidelines: Optimize Data for Model Performance: Conduct Quality Assurance on Labeled Data: Monitor and Report Data Training Results: Stay Updated on AI Data Annotation and Training Trends:
- Curate and Label Training Data:
- Select, label, and organize datasets that enable machine learning models to learn effectively. You’ll ensure data is representative, balanced, and relevant for the models’ intended tasks.
- Preprocess and clean raw data to eliminate noise and inaccuracies, ensuring high-quality data inputs. You’ll apply best practices to enhance data accuracy and reliability.
- Work with data scientists and product managers to define labeling and annotation guidelines that align with project goals. You’ll standardize processes to maintain consistency across datasets.
- Analyze and select data subsets to improve model training efficiency and accuracy. You’ll monitor model performance to identify and address gaps in data quality or diversity.
- Perform quality checks on annotated data to ensure labels are accurate and useful for model training. You’ll provide feedback to improve data annotation workflows and tools.
- Track the impact of training data on model performance, and create reports to communicate improvements and insights. You’ll work closely with machine learning engineers to refine datasets iteratively.
- Keep up with advancements in AI training techniques, annotation tools, and data management. You’ll incorporate new tools and methods to streamline and improve data preparation.
Required Skills
- Data Annotation and Labeling: Extensive experience with data labeling tools and techniques, with the ability to create high-quality, structured datasets.
- Data Cleaning and Preprocessing: Strong understanding of data cleaning methods to prepare datasets for model training. You can handle structured and unstructured data formats.
- Analytical Skills and Quality Assurance: Ability to assess data quality and accuracy through quality assurance processes. You can troubleshoot and refine data to enhance model performance.
- Collaboration and Communication: Strong communication skills to work with cross-functional teams and explain data requirements. You’re detail-oriented and organized in managing datasets.
- Technical Skills: Proficiency in data manipulation using tools like Python or SQL. Familiarity with data labeling platforms (e.g., Labelbox, Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth, or Supervisely) is beneficial.
Educational Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Information Management, or a related field. Equivalent experience in data annotation, AI training, or machine learning support may be considered.
