Job description

Welo Data is looking for detail-oriented and reliable individuals to join our team as Data Labeling Analysts, supporting speech and voice AI systems.

This is a high-impact production role focused on building the datasets that power real-world AI systems. You’ll be working with audio, speech, and language data — helping ensure models are trained on accurate, well-structured, and representative inputs.

While this role is more execution-focused than evaluation-heavy roles, it still requires strong judgment, attention to detail, and consistency. The work sits at the intersection of language, data, and AI systems — where precision and discipline matter at scale.

We’re looking for people who are dependable, focused, and take pride in producing high-quality work, even across repetitive workflows.

• Hiring in: Onsite (Bay Area, Seattle, NYC, or client-dependent)
• Hours: Full-time, 40 hours per week
• Employment Type: W2 Full-Time Employee
• Work Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the U.S. (no visa sponsorship)
• Pay Rate: $28/hour

Important: This is a 100% onsite position — remote work is not available for this role. To be considered, candidates must be located in or able to commute to one of the following cities: NYC, Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, San Francisco, Sunnyvale, Burlingame, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Boston. Please only apply if you meet this location requirement.

What You’ll Do

• Execute high-volume data labeling and annotation tasks across speech and voice datasets
• Follow detailed guidelines to ensure consistency, accuracy, and data integrity at scale
• Work with audio and language data, including transcription, categorization, and tagging
• Maintain strong throughput while meeting quality expectations
• Escalate unclear or ambiguous cases appropriately
• Adapt to evolving guidelines and workflows as systems and requirements change
• Support baseline data production needs for AI training pipelines
• Contribute to team calibrations and quality alignment sessions

What We’re Looking For

• Native-level fluency in Polish
• Strong written communication skills and language fundamentals
• 1 year of work experience in data labeling, annotation, or content-focused work; or a Bachelor's degree or equivalent academic qualification in a related field
• Ability to follow detailed instructions and apply guidelines consistently
• High attention to detail and ability to maintain accuracy in repetitive tasks
• Comfort working in structured, process-driven environments
• Ability to manage time effectively and maintain steady output
• Willingness to ask questions and escalates when needed
• Basic familiarity with AI, speech technology, or language data is a plus

Benefits

• Paid Vacation: 6 days
• Paid Company Holidays: 2 days (Memorial Day and Labor Day)
• Paid Sick Leave: accrued per applicable state law and company policy
• Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance (eligibility applies)
• Health Savings Account (HSA)
• 401(k) Retirement Plan
• Employee Assistance Program
• Additional voluntary benefits (life, accident, critical illness, etc.)

Onsite Perks (where applicable)

• Free breakfast, lunch, and dinner
• Stocked micro-kitchens with snacks and beverages
• Commuter benefits, including shuttles and bike-to-work options
• Unique campus features depending on location

Please note that in order to verify work authorization as is required by Federal law (I-9 process), all new employees must complete a live video verification with their selected IDs and provide photos of these selected IDs within their first 3 days of employment.

In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification form upon hire. In addition, we employ anti-fraud checks to ensure all candidates meet the requirements of the program.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.

To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform essential functions.

Why This Role

This role is a critical part of how modern AI systems are built. The data you produce directly impacts how speech and voice models understand and interact with real users.

It’s a great entry point into AI operations, offering exposure to large-scale systems and the opportunity to build foundational experience in data, language, and AI workflows.
