Perception Annotation Technician, Rwanda [Full Time] - Late Night

About Zipline Do you want to change the world? Zipline is on a mission to transform the way goods move. Our aim is to solve the world’s most urgent and complex access challenges by building, manufacturing and operating the first instant delivery and logistics system that serves all humans equally, wherever they are. From powering Rwanda’s national blood delivery network and Ghana’s COVID-19 vaccine distribution, to providing on-demand home delivery for Walmart, to enabling healthcare providers to bring care directly to U.S. homes, we are transforming the way things move for businesses, governments and consumers.  The technology is complex but the idea is simple: a teleportation service that delivers what you need, when you need it. Through our technology that includes robotics and autonomy, we are decarbonizing delivery, decreasing road congestion, and reducing fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while providing equitable access to billions of people and building a more resilient global supply chain. About You and The Role  As a Perception Annotation Technician, you’ll play a key role in supporting Zipline’s global operations by providing real-time data annotation coverage during late-night hours (11PM–7AM) to ensure continuous, high-quality data processing. You’ll work alongside the broader Perception team to review and annotate data, adding critical contextual metadata for machine learning applications. Our Perception systems rely on accurately annotated data to power safety-critical capabilities such as avoiding other aircraft, detecting ground-based obstacles, and ensuring precise deliveries.

Use internal tools to label data, providing feedback on how to make them better and more efficient. Review data labeled by external labeling services for accuracy and completeness. Meet weekly quotas for data delivery to keep algorithmic development on track, while maintaining a high bar for quality. Be willing to support other team members of the Perception and Perception Data team on ongoing special projects as needed. What You'll Bring  You have a bachelor’s degree in any engineering/applied sciences background. You have 3+ years of work experience reviewing and annotating data. You have experience managing complex tasks and projects. You enjoy working on tasks that require attention to details for an extended period of time. You can communicate effectively (verbally and in writing) in English. What Else You Need to Know   WORKING HOURS: This role primarily involves late-night (11PM–7AM) and weekend shifts.
