## About the role

We are building Protege to solve the biggest unmet need in AI — getting access to the right training data. The process today is time intensive, incredibly expensive, and often ends in failure. The Protege platform facilitates the secure, efficient, and privacy-centric exchange of AI training data. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Minimum 2 years in data science, applied statistics, ML engineering, or quantitative research, working with real, messy data
- Solid statistics: sampling, confidence intervals, measurement design and inter-rater agreement. You can explain why a sample is big enough, and what it can't tell you
- Strong background, and experience using language models or AI coding tools to move fast
- Healthy skepticism. You verify claims before trusting them, including your own
- Clear writing for technical and non-technical readers, including external reviewers
- Authorization to work in the U.S. as a W2 employee (required for access to protected health information)
