Welo Global
Project Perseus | Data Quality Analyst - Italian Speakers (Human-in-the-Loop AI)
Be an Early Applicant
Audit and validate data labeling outputs, provide structured feedback and hands-on training to annotators, monitor workflows and escalate issues, help apply and improve guidelines, and identify patterns in human and model outputs to maintain high-quality AI training data.
Welo Data is looking for experienced, detail-oriented professionals to join our team as Data Quality Analysts. This role sits at the center of execution and quality — bridging Data Labeling Associates (DLAs) and Team Leads to ensure work is not only completed, but done right.
You'll work closely with both people and AI systems — auditing outputs, supporting day-to-day execution, and helping teams apply guidelines correctly in fast-moving, real-world scenarios. The work combines data quality, light project coordination, and hands-on training, where your ability to guide others and think critically is just as important as your own output.

- Hours: Full-time, 40 hours per week
- Employment Type: W2 Full-Time Employee

Please only apply if you meet this location requirement.
What You’ll Do
- Support quality and execution across DLA teams, ensuring work meets defined standards at scale
- Audit DLA outputs and provide structured, actionable feedback to improve accuracy and consistency
- Act as the first line of support for DLAs — answering questions and helping interpret guidelines
- Help DLAs navigate ambiguity and apply evolving instructions effectively
- Support onboarding and training of new DLAs through hands-on guidance and coaching
- Monitor workflows, queues, and blockers — escalating risks and gaps to Team Leads
- Identify patterns, recurring issues, and edge cases in both human and model outputs
- Participate in calibrations, team discussions, and stakeholder syncs
- Contribute to improving guidelines, processes, and overall team performance
- Document findings and feedback in a clear, concise, and actionable way
What We’re Looking For
- Native-level Italian language proficiency and a university degree (Bachelor’s or higher).
- B2 or superior level of English.
- 2–4 years of experience in data annotation, content quality, QA, or related fields
- Strong ability to interpret and apply complex guidelines with consistency
- Excellent attention to detail with a high bar for quality
- Ability to stay consistent while working with evolving guidelines and priorities
- Experience in AI/ML data workflows or human-in-the-loop evaluation environments
- Prior experience auditing or reviewing the work of others
- Familiarity with safety, compliance, or policy-driven content evaluation
Benefits
