[Hiring] Head of AI - Data Annotation @JobTeaser

Role Description

This position, with extremely high visibility, reports to our Managing Director, Juliette Laborie. You will be the technical and strategic reference point for the launch of a major new JobTeaser initiative.

We are creating a new AI-based project and need subject matter experts to be part of a groundbreaking venture aiming at revolutionizing student employment by 2026.

Your core mission is to bring state-of-the-art expertise in AI, particularly in Large Language Model (LLM) training methodologies and the management of vast data annotation pools. You will act as a strategic partner to the Leadership Team to structure the project and ensure its alignment with industry standards.

• AI Vision and Strategy: Define the technical vision for creating a specialized pool of profiles ("Data Annotators") intended to train AI models in highly specific domains (e.g., Finance, Astrophysics, Coding, legal, etc.).
• Expert Consulting: Serve as the key expert liaison with JobTeaser's strategic partners (major AI players) to validate the methodologies, quality, and relevance of the profiles and deliverables.
• Product Structuring: Work hand-in-hand with the Product and Strategy team to translate the needs of AI partners into product specifications (profiling, assessment, data delivery).
• Quality Assurance: Establish the quality, performance, and data security framework for the Data Annotation workflow.
• Monitoring and Influence: Represent JobTeaser in this new market, track key trends in AI training, and identify new growth opportunities for this service.

Qualifications

• Solid experience (4–6 years) in the AI ecosystem, combining hands-on technical work on ML/DL systems with a strong understanding of data quality and model training pipelines, ideally in a regulated, product-driven, or research-applied environment.
• In-depth knowledge of Data Annotation processes, LLM training requirements, and data quality standards.
• Excellent communicator and an "opener" capable of building and maintaining trust-based relationships with high-level partners.
• Able to operate on both a strategic level (defining the vision) and an operational level (validating methodologies).
• Fluent in English (mandatory) and French.

Requirements

• Status: CDI (Permanent Contract) or Freelance (Long-term mission).

Benefits

• Join a mission-driven company with a concrete impact on the new generation.
• Share our three core virtues with our people all over Europe: #Committed, #OneTeam, #DrivEn.
• Take part in a dynamic internal life, where everyone can contribute (all-hands, local parties, team drinks, team-buildings, etc.).
• Grow and develop your career with a strong training policy, including an annual individual budget for learning opportunities (95% of our employees were trained last year!).
• Enjoy our flexible work environment: remote-friendly, with one month per year from anywhere in Europe, and home office equipment support. Some positions can even be fully remote.
• Benefit from our Family Care Policy: 4 additional paid days off during your return month from parental leave, 3 paid child-sick days per year, and other initiatives to support parents.
• Take care of your mental health with Moka Care: 4 free therapy or coaching sessions per year (with additional support in challenging personal situations), plus regular workshops for managers in partnership with Moka Care and Alan.
• Make your voice count: our Take Care Survey (run twice a year) ensures employee feedback directly shapes JobTeaser’s culture, collaboration and cross-team work.
• Protect your focus time with our No-Meeting Wednesday mornings initiative.
• Collaborate closely with our CSE, actively involved in enhancing work life and benefits (with the HappyPal platform).
• Enjoy the essentials: RTT, health insurance, lunch vouchers, holiday bonus, and 50% public transport reimbursement.
• A modern and well-located office at WeWork - including delicious barista coffee and free yoga lessons.
