Advanced AI Trainer Software Development (COBOL Coding-focused)
The Business Context
You already use AI in many ways—like deciding what products and services to order—and it may be most familiar to you as a chatbot, as an avatar-maker, or as a way to unlock your screen. But here’s what AI may be able to help the world with: finding medical diagnoses, teaching you about scientific research, and calculating the complexities of any function.
But, like humans, algorithms are what they eat. They’re only as good as the rules they know and the data they’re trained on. We’re the team that helps model these behaviors.
-
Teaching experience strongly preferred
Day in and day out, you will:
-
You’ll spend the bulk of your time chatting with the AI, helping it analyze swaths of subject areas and distinguish between what is presented as fact vs. context vs. patterns of behavior.
-
You will continuously evaluate the AI according to those criteria and our training methods. For example, you will be discerning the accuracy of the facts that the AI is outputting, but also the accuracy with which they interpret them.
-
You’ll spend substantial amounts of time actively trying to “break” the AI by “forcing” mistakes and improving the way these AI models recover. This is absolutely critical to its safety, accuracy, and use. You’ll document breaks and have the opportunity to recommend improvements to the training methods themselves to both our team and our client.
The Person
This is a technology job that accommodates people from diverse educational and professional backgrounds but with a balanced mix of subject matter expertise, higher studies, research experience and teaching/tutoring experience. The role relies more on your competencies than your formal experience––making it a rare opportunity that’s perfect for those looking to apply their knowledge in the AI space, career transitioners, and those seeking an exciting encore career.
You’re the sort of person who is exceptional at listening and reading for ground-level facts and intended meaning, and you can explain the inferences you made to link the two. Basically, you’ve got the metacognitive awareness to “show your work.”
This role is Coding-focused. We are really looking for people with strong experience with COBOL.
Compensation
This is an entry-level role perfect for voracious readers early in their careers, or for career switchers keen to enter the technology field. Pay begins between $25-$30 / hour to top applicants anywhere in the world.
Life
Ideally you are available between EST or PST time zones. The work is steady, the hours are flexible, the work is enjoyable, and leaves room for advancement into more senior training roles and project management roles on the Invisible team as the project expands. We’re keen to share more in interviews.
