The work
You will create realistic data science problems and scenarios, then assess how well AI-generated answers handle real modeling, analysis, experimentation, and feature engineering work. You will judge technical accuracy, practical feasibility, and fit with professional or research settings.
The work is remote and asynchronous. You will complete project tasks independently and provide clear written feedback that helps improve AI model performance.
- Create data science problems and scenarios based on real modeling, analysis, experimentation, and feature engineering tasks.
- Evaluate AI-generated responses for technical accuracy and practical feasibility.
- Assess whether responses reflect how data science is practiced in professional or research settings.
- Write structured feedback to help improve AI model performance.
