Job Description

Data Annotation Analyst creating precise imagery, video, and LiDAR labels for Appen’s AI training datasets. Supporting autonomous-machine perception through accurate segmentation, tracking, and object annotations.

Responsibilities:

  • Annotate 2D and 3D objects across images, video, and LiDAR point clouds, including vehicles, machinery, people, signage, and environmental features
  • Create and maintain segmentation, object tracking, pose, and keypoint annotations across sequences
  • Apply annotation guidelines covering class definitions, occlusion rules, object thresholds, and inclusion/exclusion criteria
  • Review work, respond to QA feedback, and maintain quality and accuracy standards
  • Identify and escalate ambiguous scenes, sensor artifacts, tooling issues, and specification gaps
  • Document data quality and tooling issues with clear details and reproduction steps
  • Participate in calibration sessions, guideline reviews, and team standups
  • Share observations to improve annotation guidelines, taxonomies, and edge-case documentation
  • Produce accurate, consistent annotations at the expected volume while maintaining reliable datasets

Requirements:

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain accuracy during repetitive, visually intensive work
  • Strong spatial reasoning skills, including interpreting 3D environments and understanding object size, position, and orientation
  • Ability to learn and navigate complex purpose-built software, keyboard shortcuts, and tooling features
  • Experience working in a fast-paced, scaled environment with defined productivity, quality, or accuracy targets
  • Experience with image annotation GenAI workflows
  • Reliable high-speed internet
  • Distraction-free workspace
  • Ability to work on a company-provisioned machine within a controlled environment
  • Experience with image, video, LiDAR, or 3D annotation tools

  • Experience with AutoCAD or similar tools
  • Experience in construction, mining, agriculture, industrial operations, or heavy equipment environments
  • Familiarity with point cloud data, sensor fusion, or camera-LiDAR calibration
  • Experience with autonomous vehicles, robotics, or machine perception datasets

Benefits:

  • Flexible work arrangements
  • Tools, resources and development opportunities
  • Reliable high-speed internet requirement
  • Company-provisioned machine
  • Controlled work environment
