Job Description Telus International AI Data Solutions or TI AI for short, has been a global leader in data services since 2005. Listed on Feb 21 on the NYSE, TI now has a market cap of $10Million+. With Playment's acquisition on July 21, we now have a combined strength in video, images, and audio text labelling, serving the world's top ML teams. We've built a truly industry-agnostic platform to support the growing needs of our customers. Eg of our customer use cases - Automotive companies build self-driving capabilities, Agriculture companies for identify weeds & fruit picking, Insurance companies for claim processing & damage detection, Retail companies for shelf tracking, Drone/Satellite imagery for terrain analysis, E-commerce for cataloguing & visual object understanding etc. Why is it important High-quality training data is quintessential to improve the precision of ML algorithms. Forbes lists 'Autonomous Cars' as one of the technology trends for the next decade and also estimates ML engineers spend 70% of their time in pre/post-processing & data management steps. Companies need to build sophisticated tooling (supporting all forms of sensor data) ,and hire and manage hundreds of skilled people to ensure high-quality labelled data. Our autonomous driving customers estimate that 1 hour of video data needs 800 man-hours of manual human work. Today, in the wake of the autonomous car industry only a few million km of data has been labelled, and 10x more will be collected before the world sees them on the road. Just as DevOps is critical to tech implementation, AI Ops will be a big challenge as AI development commercialises in the next 5-10 years. We aim to become an AI data platform, a critical part of the AI infrastructure stack.
