About The Position

Welo Data is seeking Data Labeling Associates for Project Perseus, focusing on refining the future of multilingual AI. This role is not a traditional annotation position; instead, it involves working at the intersection of human judgment and machine learning. The associate will evaluate how cutting-edge AI systems handle Italian language nuances, cultural context, and safety boundaries. The mission is to achieve Human-in-the-Loop Excellence by critiquing AI outputs for accuracy, fluency, and tone, identifying bias, risks, and failure modes in datasets, and refining evaluation frameworks. Associates will also identify trends in model performance and communicate findings to technical stakeholders, participating in team syncs for consistent quality. This is a W2 Full-Time Employee position, requiring 40 hours/week, located on-site in Washington State (Redmond, Seattle, or Bellevue) with a pay rate of $34 per hour. It offers an opportunity to directly influence how AI systems are evaluated and improved in a fast-moving, collaborative environment.

Requirements

• B2 level or superior English skills to navigate technical guidelines and stakeholder syncs.
• 1–2 years of experience in professional writing, journalism, or content creation.
• 2+ years of experience focusing on Safety & Trust in Generative AI data delivery.
• The ability to make sound judgment calls in ambiguous "grey area" scenarios.
• A natural curiosity about LLMs and the confidence to flag issues when a model's behavior feels "off."

Responsibilities

• Critique Italian AI outputs for accuracy, fluency, and tone, providing structured feedback to drive model improvement.
• Use your 2+ years of GenAI safety experience to identify bias, risks, and failure modes in Italian datasets.
• Apply complex linguistic guidelines thoughtfully and help refine evaluation frameworks to reflect real-world Italian dialects and contexts.

• Participate in team syncs to ensure consistent quality across global AI workstreams.
