About David AI
David AI is pioneering the field of audio data research, merging rigorous R&D methodologies with data development. Our mission is to seamlessly integrate AI into daily life, with audio as the key gateway. As the demand for advanced audio AI grows, the need for high-quality training data becomes critical, and that’s where we excel.
Founded in 2024 by former engineers and operators from Scale AI, we’ve quickly attracted leading tech companies and AI labs as our clients. Recently, we secured a $50M Series B funding round from prominent investors including Meritech, NVIDIA, and others.
Our dynamic team is composed of talented, humble, and ambitious individuals. We are actively seeking exceptional minds in research, engineering, product development, and operations to join us in advancing the audio AI frontier.
About Our Data Operations Team
The Data Operations team is charged with converting raw audio into high-quality training datasets for some of the top AI labs. Our focus is on creating scalable data pipelines and running them efficiently.
We start with the capabilities we want our models to achieve, exploring various data formats and collection strategies, then validating these approaches with researchers. Once a method is effective, we industrialize it by developing reliable pipelines that ensure high-quality audio processing. We are dedicated operators who excel in uncertain environments, equally adept at prototyping innovative workflows and managing large-scale production systems.
Position Overview
As the Director of Operations, you will oversee our data product operations, serving as the driving force behind scalable audio data production. You will lead a diverse team of operators responsible for creating and refining data pipelines, whether through pioneering experiments or scaling proven datasets. As a unifying leader, you will define strategies, navigate trade-offs, and align your team of XX around the company's strategic goals.
Key Responsibilities
- Direct and manage multiple business units, each led by a General Manager, focusing on large-scale audio data pipelines for high-value clients.
- Oversee the entire execution process from delivery to quality assurance, ensuring the operational excellence of our data services.
