About the job
We believe that high-quality data is key to building AI models, especially in the era of Large Language Models (LLMs). We work with model and product teams to measure and improve data quality, collect and generate high quality data, develop evaluation methodologies, and enhance model performance.
As a part of Machine Learning (ML), Systems and Cloud AI (MSCA), we are positioned to build best data practices throughout Google, working with teams like Google DeepMind (GDM) and Cloud AI, and push the frontiers of GenAI.
Responsibilities
- Work with large, complex data sets. Solve difficult, non-routine analysis problems, applying advanced analytical methods as needed. Conduct analysis that includes data gathering and requirements specification, processing, cleaning and curation, analysis, visualization, ongoing deliverables, and presentations.
- Share analysis to relevant stakeholders and organization executives in order to share insights, influence product direction and answer difficult questions regarding data quality measurement and impact on model performance.
- Build and prototype analysis pipelines iteratively to provide insights at scale. Work closely with product teams to incorporate important analysis into existing framework and tools.
- Interact cross-functionally with a wide variety of product and model teams. Work closely with engineers to identify opportunities for, design, and assess improvements of data quality and model performance.
