About the role

ML models are only as good as their labels. A classification model trained on annotations where 15% of the labels are wrong will learn the mistakes. Our annotation quality platform detects labeling errors before they corrupt model training — using inter-annotator agreement analysis, automated consistency checks, and ML-assisted quality scoring. You'll build the quality measurement systems: statistical methods for estimating true label quality from multiple annotator judgments, automated detection of annotation patterns that indicate confusion or fatigue, and the calibration tools that help annotation teams maintain consistency across millions of labeled items. Annotation quality is a meta-problem — you're building ML to improve the data that trains other ML. The feedback loops are complex: quality models need quality labels themselves, and measuring quality requires ground truth that's expensive to obtain. You'll develop creative approaches to these bootstrapping challenges.

Fully remote.
