If you recognize yourself in this description, the Data Annotator role at Microblink could be the perfect next step for you.

A little bit about us

Microblink is an AI company specializing in computer vision and identity fraud detection. We create unique products and tools designed to make the future of digital identity a secure "no-fake-zone." Our expertise includes running efficient machine learning models directly on-device, enabling a uniquely seamless Identity Verification (IDV) experience. With teams across the US and Europe and main offices in New York and Zagreb, we touch hundreds of millions of users each year worldwide.

Why Student Data Annotators matter to us

We are experts in machine learning, and the first essential step is machine teaching. This is exactly what our Data Annotators do: they prepare data for teaching ML algorithms how to recognize various objects and documents. ML algorithms rely on human-labeled data to learn, so without Data Annotators, our AI-based products would not function as well as they do.

In this role, you will be a core part of our machine learning process, responsible for preparing high-quality, precise data using our proprietary software and detailed guidelines to train and optimize our machine learning models.

Here's what you'll do

• Annotate data (such as numbers, letters, words, and specific fields) on various documents.
• Analyze and classify global documents by systematically researching their content and structure, and making precise, guideline-based decisions.
• Rigorously analyze images to recognize and report inconsistencies and distortions, ensuring the data is filtered and cleaned for use in accurate training datasets.

Your work hours will be flexible

• In the beginning, you will be working in shifts of 4 hours, which can be increased up to 8 hours - it's up to you and your availability
• The minimum weekly requirement is 12 hours, which must cover a minimum of 3 shifts.
• You will work from our Zagreb office (Trg Drage Iblera 10) and choose any shift between Monday to Friday from 7 AM until 8 PM

For this position, no previous technical knowledge is needed! You'll be successful in this role if you:

• Are reliable, attentive, and responsible in your work
• Have a systematic approach to problems and an eye for details
• Possess a curious and investigative mindset, eager to explore problems and dig for effective solutions
• Have no problem with organizing your own time and priorities
• Have a basic knowledge of MS Word and MS Excel
• Know the basics of the English language
• Have active student rights for at least a year from now

Why should you pursue a job as a student in the Data team? Here's what you'll gain if you join us:

Our students are invaluable members of the Microblink community. Many of our employees joined us in their university days and decided to stay full-time. Because we know balancing exams, classes, and work duties is tough, we want to go the extra mile to support you.

• An hourly rate of 6.60 €, which grows according to a clearly defined career plan and metrics.
• Vacation days: you'll get 2 weeks of paid vacation after your 1st Microblink anniversary.
• Internal education: You'll have access to in-company training programs, such as soft skills workshops and knowledge-sharing sessions, based on your job requirements. You will also have access to online learning platforms accessible at the company level.
• Internal library - if you love expanding your knowledge and horizons through reading, request a book and find it on the shelf! And feel free to borrow any book from there.
• Hassle-free student contracts - no more standing in line in SC! We take administration off your hands and handle your student contracts.
• Full kitchen equipment - prepare a healthy breakfast or snack with our smoothie maker (and ingredients like free fruits and oats). And enjoy coffee, tea & Cedevita whenever you want.
• Closed parking for bikes and office space for electric scooters.
• A culture that recognizes and rewards success and is not afraid to try, fail, and learn from mistakes. Find out what it’s like being a Student Data Annotator at Microblink.
