**About This Role**
In this hourly, remote contractor role, you will work as an R Quality Assurance Lead to oversee quality, consistency, and trainer performance across R programming and data-analysis AI training projects.

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 R quality leadership will help ensure R training data is accurate, reproducible, statistically sound, clearly explained, and aligned with client expectations. Selection process involves an AI interview, a domain-specific task, and an interview with a recruiter.
