Founding Strategic Project Lead

**Location:** United States (remote) **Work Model:** Fully remote **Industry:** AI data / frontier AI labs **Compensation:** $150K-$200K base, plus equity and profit share ### About the Company Our partner is an early-stage, fast-growing AI data startup working with frontier AI labs and top voice-model companies to deliver specialized data sets, including voice, reinforcement learning, and environment data. Backed by leading investors and one of the fastest-growing companies in its cohort, the team hit a $1M run rate within its first several weeks. This is a rare ground-floor opportunity to join as the first external hire, with substantial equity upside and a clear path into senior leadership. ### The Opportunity As the founding Strategic Project Lead, you will own delivery end to end. You will source data through a global contributor network, run quality control, help build out the QC systems, manage customer relationships, and oversee delivery against lab requirements. Projects typically run a few weeks to a month and move fast. This is an operationally heavy, high-ownership role ideal for someone who treats it as more than a job and wants exposure to the fast-growing AI data space. ### Responsibilities - Own end-to-end delivery of data projects against lab and customer requirements - Source data through and manage a global contributor network - Run quality control and help build out scalable QC systems - Manage customer relationships and coordinate across all sides of delivery - Operate with high agency in an unstructured, fast-moving environment ### Requirements - Roughly 2+ years of post-college experience, with openness to high-agency new grads who have interned at a human-data startup - High agency and a generalist mindset, comfortable wearing multiple hats - Comfort thriving in an unstructured, early-stage environment - Willingness to take on operationally heavy work - Bonus: experience at a human-data startup, a PM background, or founder aspirations
