Deskripsi Pekerjaan - Data Annotation Manager

At XDOF, we're at an inflection point. Frontier labs are racing to build general-purpose robots, and high-quality training data is the bottleneck. We're building the foundation behind the foundation models – the data collection systems, operational capability, exabyte-scale data warehouse, and software toolchain – to help our partners drive the field forward.

Data annotation is where raw data becomes a training signal, and quality here compounds into everything the models learn downstream. We're looking for a Data Annotation Manager to lead a large team of annotators, hold the line on quality, and build the operation that makes accurate, consistent data possible at scale.

What You'll Do

• manage a large team of data annotators, from hiring and training to holding the team accountable to a high bar

• learn the work deeply enough to coach the team through it, not just manage it from the outside

• uphold quality standards and catch problems before they compound downstream

• lead by example, doing the work yourself when it matters

• improve operations continuously, spotting inefficiencies and fixing them

• build and grow the team as the work scales

• do what it takes to fully understand requirements and set the standard for others to follow

About You

• holds a bachelor's degree from a reputable university

• experience managing large annotation teams

• comfortable leading high-volume, quality-driven operations

• excellent written and spoken English, with impeccable grammar and exceptional attention to detail

• adaptable, and thrives when priorities and requirements change

• takes ownership, moves quickly, and proactively solves problems

• comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment

• willing to work from XDOF's South Jakarta office

• open to international travel to support global offices

• Mandarin/Chinese is a plus

You might be a good fit if you're mission-driven and energized by building the operational backbone behind frontier AI data work. Work at XDOF is fast-paced and constant. We hope you love what you're going to be doing, because you'll be doing a lot of it!
