Av Labeling Program Manager II

Uber Uber · Consumer · Hyderabad, India · Engineering

Program Manager for Uber's Physical AI team, focusing on managing human-in-the-loop (HITL) operations for ML/AI projects, specifically 2D/3D LiDAR annotations, object detection, and semantic segmentation. Responsibilities include designing data pipelines, managing global vendor operations, developing SOPs, and analyzing program metrics to drive decisions and improve processes from pilot to full-scale deployment.

What you'd actually do

  1. Lead complex AI/ML programs focused on 2D/3D LiDAR annotations, object detection, semantic segmentation, and other key annotation workflows.
  2. Design and implement scalable data pipelines that support model training, quality control, and real-time feedback loops.
  3. Partner with engineering and product teams to identify tooling gaps and deliver long-term process and technology improvements.
  4. Manage global vendor operations, including RFPs, performance tracking, and quality governance to ensure best-in-class delivery.
  5. Develop standard operating procedures (SOPs) for new data initiatives and guide them from pilot phase to full-scale deployment.
