Schedule: Full-Time, Remote
Contract Length: 6 Months + Extensions Possible
Pay Rate: $20-$25/hr
About the Role
We are seeking Vision Data Specialists to support the development of next-generation AI and computer vision models. This role will focus on labeling and validating image and video datasets used to train machine learning systems. Specialists will perform high-volume annotation tasks including bounding boxes, object segmentation, classification, object tracking, and quality review while adhering to detailed project guidelines.
The ideal candidate is highly detail-oriented, thrives in fast-paced environments, and can consistently make accurate decisions when working with large-scale visual datasets.
Must-Have Qualifications
- Bachelor's Degree required. Open major, provided the academic background demonstrates strong critical thinking, attention to detail, and pattern recognition skills.
- 6+ months of Computer Vision, Image Annotation, Video Annotation, GIS Labeling, Mapping, QA/QC, or Data Annotation experience.
- Ability to consistently apply detailed annotation guidelines and make accurate labeling decisions across:
- Bounding Boxes
- Object Classification
- Object Tracking
- Visual QA Validation
- Experience performing detail-oriented image, video, quality control, or visual analysis work where accuracy and consistency were critical.
- Strong visual pattern recognition skills with the ability to identify objects, attributes, movements, and anomalies across large image and video datasets.
- Experience working within quality-driven environments where performance is measured through accuracy, precision, throughput, and compliance metrics.
- Ability to identify ambiguous cases, elevate inconsistencies, and adapt quickly to evolving project requirements and annotation standards.
- Strong computer proficiency and ability to learn new annotation tools, workflows, and AI data platforms quickly.
- Ability to work independently while maintaining productivity, accuracy, and quality targets in a fast-paced environment.
- Excellent written communication skills and ability to document rationale for annotation decisions.
- Demonstrated ability to accept and incorporate feedback through calibration sessions, quality audits, and continuous improvement processes.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience working on autonomous vehicle, robotics, aerial imagery, security camera, geospatial, or machine vision projects.
- Experience with multimodal AI datasets (image, video, audio, text).
- Experience performing annotation quality audits.
- Familiarity with computer vision concepts and machine learning data pipelines.
- Experience with RLHF or Generative AI evaluation programs.
- Additional language proficiency.
Day-to-Day Responsibilities
- Accurately annotate computer vision datasets using:
- Bounding boxes
- Semantic and instance segmentation
- Classification and categorization
- Object tracking
- Visual quality validation
- Review visual content and apply project-specific guidelines consistently.
- Identify edge cases and elevate ambiguous labeling scenarios.
- Maintain high levels of quality, consistency, and productivity.
- Participate in quality audits and calibration exercises.
- Collaborate with peers and leads to improve annotation workflows.
- Provide feedback on tooling, workflows, and annotation processes.
- Complete assignments within service-level expectations and project deadlines.
- Adapt to evolving project requirements and labeling standards.
Success Profile
Successful candidates are sharp, detail-oriented individuals who can quickly identify patterns in visual data, make consistent decisions at scale, and maintain exceptional quality standards while working independently.
