What this role is
This role focuses on designing and managing the datasets that train world simulation models, encompassing dataset creation, synthetic data pipelines, and controlled experiments to measure how data composition affects model performance. It suits machine learning engineers with 4+ years of experience who want to shape AI capabilities directly through data strategy rather than model architecture alone.
