As an AI Data Trainer with Linux/Ubuntu, you will work remotely on an hourly paid basis to support AI data training projects through structured, detail-oriented tasks. You will install applications and record your actions while completing tasks with patience, concentration, and strong attention to detail.

This role requires you to have your own computer running Ubuntu/Linux and to be comfortable installing the applications and tools needed for the project. While advanced AI experience is not required, you should be tech-savvy, reliable, careful with instructions, and able to work independently.

This role is a good fit for students, junior candidates, Linux enthusiasts, and other tech-savvy individuals who are patient, focused, detail-oriented, and comfortable working with Ubuntu/Linux.

This is a fully remote, hourly paid contractor role with SME Careers, a fast-growing AI data services company and subsidiary of SuperAnnotate that provides AI training data to many of the world’s largest AI companies and foundation model labs. Your work will directly contribute to improving AI systems used across products and industries.

  • Contribute to improving the quality of AI model training data

Your Profile

  • Have access to a personal computer running Ubuntu/Linux
