About AI Training Work

AI training (also called data labeling or annotation) is the human side of building artificial intelligence. People prepare and review examples—like images, audio, and video—that teach models to recognize actions and make decisions.

These projects are often remote, part-time, and accessible: many roles require attention to detail or domain familiarity rather than formal tech experience. Your annotations will directly influence how driving models perceive vehicle behavior on the road.

The Role

As a Driving Behavior Video Annotator you will watch short driving clips and choose a single frame that best represents a key vehicle behavior. Your work trains action-recognition models used in autonomous driving research and development.

This is a part-time contractor role for U.S.-based drivers (remote work). You will label 5-second video clips and select one frame per clip from a predefined list of behaviors.

• Data type: Video (5-second clips).
• Label type: Action recognition — one behavior label per clip.
• Employment: Contractor, part-time (under 20 hours/week).

What You'll Do

You will review short driving videos and identify the single frame that best captures the target behavior. Examples of behaviors include turning, lane keeping, yielding, and similar vehicle actions. Each clip receives one label chosen from a provided list.

• Watch 5-second driving clips and pause/select the frame that most clearly shows the behavior.
• Choose a single label from a predefined behavior taxonomy for each clip.
• Follow detailed annotation instructions and quality checks to ensure consistent, high-quality labels.
• Work asynchronously and manage your own schedule within the weekly hour limit.

Requirements

We require experience and proof of driving eligibility. Candidates who cannot provide the required license documentation will be disqualified.

• Minimum 1–2 years of experience in data labeling or related annotation work.
• Valid U.S. driver's license is mandatory; you may redact personal details (birthdate, ID number) when submitting a copy.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to consistently follow annotation guidelines.
• Comfortable analyzing short video clips and making quick, defensible judgments about vehicle behavior.

Compensation & Schedule

Pay is hourly at the listed rate. This is a part-time contractor position with flexible scheduling that fits around other commitments.

• Pay type: Hourly (USD) — $18.00 per hour.
• Time requirement: Less than 20 hours per week, set your own hours.
• Contractor classification: You supply your own workspace and internet connection.

How To Apply

Create an OpenTrain account (free) and submit your application. Include a brief summary of your labeling experience and confirm that you hold a valid U.S. driver's license.

When asked for license documentation you may redact sensitive personal details; the license image must still clearly show your name and issuing state. Candidates who cannot provide license evidence will not pass screening.

• Prepare examples or a short description of 1–2 years of labeling work if available.
• Be ready to complete a short qualification test that checks attention to detail and behavior recognition judgment.
