ABOUT THE ROLE
We're looking for a manager to lead a team of researchers to focus on data evaluation, error analysis and data valuation methods to predict model performance. This team is responsible for showcasing the value and quality of Snorkel’s data for model training and evaluation, understanding where today's frontier models fall short, and turning that understanding into a point of view on what benchmarks and datasets these models will benefit from.
You and your team will be responsible for Snorkel’s data design flywheel by analyzing model failures, finding capability and skill gaps in current models, suggesting the next benchmarks to invest in and then proving the value of this data for our customers.
MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES
