Your Role

As an AI Evaluation Specialist (data science & ML focus), you will apply your professional experience as a data scientist or machine learning engineer to help define, execute, and evaluate realistic analytical workflows.

This is a part-time, contract role (~20 hours/week) designed for experienced professionals looking to contribute on a flexible basis.

What You'll Do

  • Design and validate structured tasks based on real-world data science and machine learning workflows

  • Reason through ambiguous analytical problems, including problem formulation and approach selection

  • Interact with data, models, and tools in ways that reflect day-to-day DS / ML practice

  • Evaluate model outputs, identify failure modes, and diagnose errors or inconsistencies

  • Provide clear, written explanations of analytical decisions, assumptions, and tradeoffs

  • Review and validate AI-generated analytical work for correctness, realism, and quality

  • Help define standards for what "good" data science and ML reasoning looks like in practice

What We're Looking For

  • Data science or machine learning roles in industry or applied research

  • Applied analytics, modeling, or quantitative problem-solving roles

  • Experience working with machine learning models, analytical pipelines, or complex datasets

Ideal candidates would have:

  • A PhD, or a Master's degree in a relevant field with 3+ years of professional experience

  • Strong ability to reason through open-ended data and modeling problems

  • Experience evaluating model outputs and identifying strengths, weaknesses, and failure modes

  • Clear written communication skills and the ability to explain analytical decisions

  • A high bar for correctness, realism, and analytical rigor

Why Verita AI?

You'll be joining a team at the intersection of creative expertise and frontier AI research. This is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up and play a defining role in shaping how Verita AI shows up to the world.
