This opportunity is ideal for those passionate about quality assurance and eager to be at the forefront of AI innovation, with a focus on data integrity, annotation, and comprehensive model evaluation.
Scope of Work
- Design, execute, and document test cases and scenarios to validate AI outputs against defined requirements.

- Evaluate, analyze, and report on model predictions, identifying inconsistencies, errors, or patterns for continuous improvement.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to communicate findings, raise questions, and clarify project requirements.
- Contribute to the development and refinement of testing methodologies specific to AI-driven systems.
- Maintain detailed, organized records of evaluations, test results, and feedback through written documentation.
- Provide actionable recommendations to optimize data quality and model performance.
Preferred Qualifications
- Hands-on expertise in software quality assurance, with a strong understanding of test planning and defect reporting.

Skills and AI tools this role asks for
Questions you could be asked
- How do you decide that one model's output is better than another's for a given task?
- How do you keep labeling instructions consistent across a large annotation team?
- This role expects you to use AI tools as part of the job. Which ones have you used, and for what?
- Tell me about a time an AI tool got something wrong. How did you catch it?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: AI Evaluation and AI Data Labeling. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
- Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them. A tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
- Put the AI tool in a bullet point about what you did, not just in a skills list. This role treats it as a required part of the job.
