Sr. Technical Product Data Specialist (Remote SA) - 49134563337

Our client provides an AI platform that helps building-products distributors and manufacturers understand, organize, and optimize the complex products they sell, enabling them to deliver exceptional product knowledge to their customers.

Their founding team previously built and sold an AI company to a major global organization. They are now applying modern AI technology to a new space. You’ll be joining a small, fast-moving team where your work directly shapes data quality and the next generation of their AI tools.

Their AI can extract specs at scale, but human judgment remains critical for accuracy and continuous improvement. You’ll be a quality gatekeeper for their product data / PIM platform and a key voice—and future leader—in how it evolves.
