Job description

About HumanSignal

Real-world data is the competitive edge in AI.

HumanSignal is a human data partner for companies building AI models and products. Our customers ship better AI, faster, because we partner with their researchers from real-world data creation to annotation to delivery.

We design and create datasets from scratch, recruit and manage the domain experts who evaluate model output, and run everything through our own platform, Label Studio, the open-source standard for data labeling and evaluation, used by over 1 million practitioners worldwide.

We specialize in the operationally complex: real-world data collection, multimodal pipelines, and multi-step workflows. Advanced ML and AI teams use our enterprise platform to run their own data factories, and our services team to extend their reach where in-house capacity runs out.

If you want to do work that materially shapes how the next generation of AI products gets built, we'd love to talk.

About the Role

You’ll run shifts at our Columbus studio, keeping data collection sessions on schedule and on spec. You're the person on the floor making sure moderators have what they need, participants are checked in and moving through sessions, and every session hits its quality bar. This is a hands‑on leadership role for someone who likes running a tight operation.

• Location: Columbus, OH (Discovery District), 100% onsite
• Type: Part time, hourly
• Pay: $20 to $25 per hour

What You’ll Do

• Lead studio shifts during active data collection projects, from open to close
• Coordinate moderators, office staff, and participants across concurrent sessions
• Monitor session quality and completion against project specifications
• Track attendance, session counts, and daily metrics; elevate issues to the operations team
• Handle on‑the‑spot problem solving: no‑shows, equipment hiccups, schedule changes
• Help onboard new moderators and studio staff

What You Bring

• Experience managing shifts, teams, or operations. Retail, hospitality, events, warehouse, food service, and campus leadership all count
• Calm, organized presence when multiple things are happening at once
• Clear communication with staff and participants
• Reliability. Sessions run on schedule and depend on you being there
• Availability for part‑time shifts during active project periods, including some evenings and weekends
• College students with leadership experience are welcome to apply

Why This Role

You’ll get direct operational leadership experience inside one of the fastest‑growing areas of AI, flexible part‑time scheduling, and a front‑row seat to how AI training data actually gets made.

HumanSignal is an equal opportunity employer. Final pay within the posted range is based on experience and shift responsibilities.
