data antonnator
One of the largest projects I contributed to involved building a multilingual dataset for a natural language processing model designed to handle customer support queries. The scope included text classification, intent recognition, and named entity labeling across five languages. My role was to design annotation guidelines, train annotators, and perform hands-on labeling for complex cases. The project size was substantial—over 1.5 million text samples—and required balancing speed with precision. I also coordinated with engineers to integrate semi-automated labeling tools, which reduced repetitive tasks and allowed human reviewers to focus on edge cases. Quality assurance was central to the project. We implemented a multi-tier review system where each batch of labeled data underwent peer review, random sampling audits, and statistical consistency checks. Inter-annotator agreement (IAA) was tracked continuously, with thresholds set to flag discrepancies early. In addition, bias detection measures were applied to ensure balanced representation across demographics and languages. These quality measures not only improved the dataset’s reliability but also directly enhanced the downstream model’s accuracy and fairness. This combination of scale, rigor, and process optimization is what made the project stand out
