Comfortable working in fast‑moving remote environments using tools such as Discord, Google Sheets, Google Docs, trackers, dashboards, and project management systems. Highly detail‑oriented and organized, with the ability to maintain style guides, FAQs, trackers, onboarding materials, calibration tasks, and documentation. Experience with AI training, data annotation, LLM evaluation, humanities QA, cultural sensitivity review, image/content review, or rubric‑based review is a strong plus.

Onboarding and training: Schedule and run onboarding/training calls with trainers and QAs to explain project expectations, workflows, rubrics, quality standards, and art history/cultural studies‑specific review requirements. Quality alignment: Ensure all trainers and QAs apply art history/cultural studies review guidelines consistently and understand updates as projects evolve. Bias and ethics review: Flag culturally insensitive, Eurocentric, decontextualized, stereotyping, misattributed, or unsupported claims about art, culture, artists, or communities. Process improvement: Identify recurring quality gaps, propose workflow improvements, and help build scalable QA processes for art history/cultural studies AI training projects. #J-18808-Ljbffr YO IT Consulting
