Job Description

Refine the Future of Multilingual AI 

Do you have professional-level proficiency in Portuguese (Portugal) and a background in writing, with attention to AI safety? Welo Data is looking for Data Labeling Associates for Project Perseus .

This is not a traditional annotation role. You will be working at the intersection of human judgment and machine learning, evaluating how cutting-edge AI systems handle Arabic language nuances, cultural context, and safety boundaries.

The Mission: Human-in-the-Loop Excellence:

  • Model Evaluation: Critique Arabic AI outputs for accuracy, fluency, and tone, providing structured feedback to drive model improvement.
  • Safety Engineering: Use your 2+ years of GenAI safety experience to identify bias, risks, and failure modes in Arabic datasets.
  • Guideline Evolution: Apply complex linguistic guidelines thoughtfully and help refine evaluation frameworks to reflect real-world Arabic dialects and contexts.
  • Strategic Insights: Identify trends in model performance and communicate findings clearly to technical stakeholders.
  • Collaborative Calibration: Participate in team syncs to ensure consistent quality across global AI workstreams.

Project Details:

  • Employment Type: W2 Full-Time Employee
  • Hours: 40 hours/week
  • Location: New York City (On-Site)
  • Pay Rate: 34 $ (per hour)

What We’re Looking For:

  • Linguistic Mastery: Professional-level proficiency in Portuguese (Portugal) and a bachelor’s degree or higher.
  • English Proficiency: B2 level or superior English skills to navigate technical guidelines and stakeholder syncs.
  • Professional Writing: 1–2 years of experience in professional writing, journalism, or content creation.
  • AI Safety Expertise: 2+ years of experience focusing on Safety & Trust in Generative AI data delivery.
  • Critical Thinking: The ability to make sound judgment calls in ambiguous "grey area" scenarios.
  • Technical Agility: A natural curiosity about LLMs and the confidence to flag issues when a model's behavior feels "off."

Premium Campus Benefits:

Joining Project Perseus on-site gives you access to a world-class work environment:

  • Gourmet Dining: Free breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a wide variety of cuisines.
  • Snack Suites: Micro-kitchens stocked with premium coffee, beverages, and healthy treats.
  • Campus Features: Modern collaborative spaces and unique amenities like rooftop nature parks (at select locations).
  • Full Security: Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision + 401(k) and HSA eligibility.
  • Commuter Support: Free transport, shuttles, and bike-to-work perks.

Why This Role:

This is an opportunity to move beyond traditional data work and play a direct role in how AI systems are evaluated and improved. The work is fast-moving, collaborative, and increasingly central to how modern AI systems are built and deployed.
