What we do

About the Role
Annotation is what helps AI make sense of the world — it’s the bridge between raw data and intelligent understanding. As a Senior Annotator, you’ll play a key role in shaping how AI systems interpret language, images, and information. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams, provide feedback on data quality, and help maintain high annotation standards across diverse projects.
Responsibilities:
- Review and analyze data — from text passages and product descriptions to social media posts, news articles, or visual content (such as marketing images and short videos) — ensuring it’s correctly labeled and contextually accurate.
- Perform quality assurance (QA) checks on tasks completed by other annotators, identifying inconsistencies or labelling errors, and providing constructive feedback to help improve accuracy.
- Label or classify content according to detailed project guidelines — for example, tagging sentiment in user reviews, identifying medical terminology in clinical texts, or categorizing tone in marketing copy.
- Evaluate AI-generated content by rating response quality, factual correctness, and tone appropriateness — such as comparing different chatbot outputs or fact-checking generated summaries.
- Flag problematic or sensitive material, including biased language, misleading claims, or inappropriate visual content, to ensure compliance with ethical and safety standards.
- Contribute to process improvements, such as suggesting refinements to annotation guidelines, improving workflow efficiency, and mentoring new team members on best practices.
Important note: This is project-based work. Tasks are available only when projects are active. You may be invited to one or more projects depending on your profile and current opportunities.
Requirements
- You hold or are currently pursuing a Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD Degree in any professional field.
- You have advanced proficiency in Korean (C1) and at least English (B2), both written and spoken.
- Experience in mentoring/teaching/consulting, or editing/reviewing/consulting work in a professional or academic setting.
- Excellent written communication and ability to give clear, structured and constructive feedback
- Proven experience in annotation or data labelling.
- Attention to details and ability to understand and follow instructions.
- Genuine interest in technology and artificial intelligence.

But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
