  • Develop and maintain scalable data pipelines for multimodal ingestion, preprocessing, filtering, and annotation
  • Analyze real-world multimodal datasets to assess quality, diversity, relevance, and identify areas for improvement
  • Build lightweight tools and workflows for dataset auditing, visualization, and versioning
  • Collaborate with Safety, Ethics, and Governance teams to ensure datasets meet standards for quality, privacy, and responsible AI practices
  • Embody our culture and values

Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree in AI, Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Physics, Engineering, or related technical discipline AND 4+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, Python and common data libraries (Pandas, NumPy, etc.) OR equivalent experience
  • 2+ years of experience in data analysis or data engineering, including work with large-scale datasets that are unstructured or semi-structured
  • Proficiency in statistics and exploratory data analysis methods
  • Familiarity with data processing frameworks such as Spark, Ray, or Apache Beam
  • Ability to communicate technical findings clearly to research and product teams
