Why this role?

We are on a mission to build machines that understand the world and make them safely accessible to all. Data quality is foundational to this process. Machines (or Large Language Models to be exact) learn in similar ways to humans - by way of feedback. 

Our Senior Data Quality Specialists work alongside our Data Quality Specialists, but the tasks you will work on are differentiated by complexity of tasks and a disproportionate focus on copywriting and proofreading / editing based tasks. By writing, reading and ranking, labeling, ranking, auditing, and correcting text output, you will be an essential component of improving our Large Language Model’s performance for iterations to come, thus having a lasting impact on Cohere’s tech. 

Please Note: This is a part-time contract position based remotely or in Cohere’s Toronto office. We are looking for candidates who are able to commit to 16 hours per week - although there is flexibility to take on additional hours if the candidate is interested in doing so. Compensation is $30 per hour. This role is BYOD - Bring Your Own Device (laptop). 

As a Senior Data Quality Specialist (copywriter & editor), you will

• Spend the majority of your time writing or reading/proofreading text

• Improve upon responses and write quality summaries and responses for the model that are dynamic, conversational, and engaging

• Label, rank, audit, and correct machine learning data

• Recommend optimization opportunities

• Provide feedback to cross-functional team members

You might be a good fit if you are

• An engaging, dynamic copywriter - with excellent oral and written skills

• An uncanny ability to distill complex ideas into readable, digestible summaries 

• A fast, thorough reader with great comprehension skills

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy - you’re the type to proofread all of your emails…twice! 

• Ability to follow complex instructions, navigate ambiguity and work independently in a remote or hybrid environment

• Superb sense of urgency and time management

• High tolerance for monotonous tasks
