The right candidate has experience in the GenAI or NLP field and possesses a blend of expert project management and customer management skills. You bring a strong desire to innovate and iterate their way to successful outcomes.
The ideal candidate is one who can navigate subjectivity, and can develop and implement new methodologies and processes - one who can “build as they go”, solving new challenges on the fly but also helping to build scalable processes and methods. They can expertly navigate subjective content with customers and internal teams and then align on objective measurements to evaluate the quality of work completed. They are proactively “hands-on” to gain an expert understanding of the project content and use that knowledge to solve problems and influence customers’ and internal teams’ decisions.
This highly cross-functional role sits between Sama’s delivery teams and its customers. It requires very strong written and verbal communication skills and an ability to interact with and demonstrate expertise to a wide variety of stakeholders across a range of cultures.
