About The Position

As a Strategic Project Lead, you will own end-to-end execution of large-scale human data projects.

You will operate in a fast-paced, high-intensity environment where you are accountable for outcomes, not just recommendations.

• Authorized to work in the US (no sponsorship)

Responsibilities

• Own delivery of human data projects from kickoff to completion
• Manage and scale networks of domain experts (20–1,000+ contributors)
• Design and optimize workflows for quality, speed, and cost
• Communicate directly with AI researchers and internal stakeholders
• Identify bottlenecks and solve operational challenges in real time
