Responsabilidades

• Clarify task requirements. Learn about data tasks for large multimodal models, autonomous driving and embodied AI. Understand the intended use, collection procedures and acceptance criteria, and turn confirmed requirements into operating steps, sample tasks and checklists.
• Support collection and quality assurance. Learn to use equipment and tools, understand data permissions and confidentiality, and complete sample collection, data preparation and checks. Identify issues and follow through on corrections.
• Coordinate project teams. Help organise teams, allocate tasks, explain standards and guide new participants. Track people, equipment, progress and resource needs so that everyone works to the same project requirements.
