The Role

We're looking for a detail-oriented, analytically-minded person to join our AI Operations team.

What Success Looks Like

Month 1: Master our AI platform and learn complex compliance workflows. Shadow experienced team members and begin conducting your first case reviews.

Month 2: Take ownership of operational support for major customer deployments. Conduct detailed quality assessments and partner with engineering to improve system performance.

Ongoing: Become the go-to expert for AI operations, conducting critical reviews that directly shape product development and customer success.
