• Reliable high-speed internet connection and a dedicated, distraction-free home workspace.
• Ability to commit to a consistent schedule and meet daily productivity benchmarks.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Prior experience in data labeling, transcription, content moderation, or quality assurance.
• Familiarity with AI/ML concepts or annotation tools like Labelbox, CVAT, or Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth.
• Background in linguistics, content writing, editing, or research.
