**About This Role**
In this hourly, remote contractor role, you will work as an Italian Quality Assurance Lead to oversee quality, consistency, and trainer performance across Italian AI training projects. You will review AI-generated Italian content and trainer/QA work, evaluate output quality against project guidelines, provide precise written feedback, and ensure that all contributors follow the expected quality standards. You will assess work for accuracy, fluency, grammar, spelling, tone, cultural appropriateness, meaning preservation, instruction-following, formatting, and adherence to project-specific rubrics. You will spot recurring quality issues, communicate updates to trainers and QAs, support onboarding, maintain documentation, and help activate contributors who are not working consistently. This role is a fast-growing AI Data Services company delivering training data for many of the world’s largest AI companies and foundation-model labs. Your Italian quality leadership will directly help improve the world’s premier AI models by ensuring that Italian training data is natural, accurate, culturally appropriate, well-documented, and aligned with client expectations.
