Responsibilities

Design and build automated quality-control systems for training data using human judgment rather than heavy LLM reliance.
Define and enforce quality standards for reinforcement-learning training data across tasks and environments.
Design experiments and metrics to evaluate and grade agent outputs.
Partner with data vendors to diagnose quality issues, agent failure modes, and data-generation workflow problems.
Build auditing systems with sampling strategies and rule-based or model-assisted validation pipelines.
Feed QC findings back into infrastructure tooling and the vendor portal to reduce anomalies, inconsistencies, and edge cases.

Requirements

2–4 years of experience in engineering or research roles focused on QC automation or data quality.
Strong proficiency in Python, Docker, and Linux environments.
Experience building scalable data-validation pipelines and automated QA/QC systems end-to-end.
Experience with benchmarks and evaluations for reinforcement-learning training data, including realistic tasks, reliable rubrics, and useful trajectories.
Ability to define and measure training-data quality using human understanding rather than delegating judgment to LLMs.
Experience designing metrics and experiments to grade agent outputs.
Comfort applying statistics to QA/QC process design.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, curiosity, autonomy, and ability to work in fast-paced, unstructured startup environments.

Benefits

Visa sponsorship is available.
The role is on-site in Singapore.
Fully remote independent-contractor arrangements may be considered for candidates outside Singapore, particularly in Europe.
