- Own the execution of our data labeling operations for strategic projects
- Give regular progress updates to Scale’s executive team

- Strong technical background (a degree in computer science is ideal, and at minimum the role requires the ability to do data analytics using SQL or Python).
- 2+ years of experience leading a team, developing product or operational processes, or as a SWE.
- Strong problem solving capabilities (experience working on operational challenges or as a consultant is a plus).
- Entrepreneurial experience and mindset - you are excited about building things from scratch
- Demonstrated ability to take initiative and independently drive projects to completion without requiring constant supervision.
- Strong program management experience, overseeing projects from inception to completion.
