Video Annotation Specialist

Video Annotation Specialist (AI Training)

About the Role

What if your eye for visual detail could directly shape how AI understands the world through video? We're looking for Video Annotation Specialists to segment, label, and describe video content that powers the next generation of AI models — helping machines learn to interpret everything from camera angles to on-screen action.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role open to anyone with strong visual attention and a methodical approach to work. No professional video or film experience required — just a sharp eye, consistent focus, and a willingness to do quality work at scale.
