  • Deliver high quality labeled data on a regular cadence to meet critical timelines and keep algorithm development on track
  • Work with the Autonomy teams on various projects as needed.

What You'll Bring 

  • Bachelor’s degree in an engineering field, or have completed all academic requirements including final year coursework and capstone presentations, with graduation pending
  • Experience reviewing and labeling data
  • Experience managing complex tasks and projects
  • Ability to maintain a high level of attention to detail over extended periods of time
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills in English.

What Else You Need to Know

  • This position is expected to primarily operate during daytime hours; however, candidates must be flexible to work a rotating shift schedule, including nights, weekends, and public holidays as required.
