Which AI Labs Are Hiring for Human Data

Method and definitions

The public job boards (Greenhouse and Ashby APIs) of AI labs and human-data vendors, read every day. Every figure is computed by one database query over the window shown, the same query for the live report and for every edition. Each figure states its sample beneath it.

Human-data role

A role whose title (or, for a lab's own human-data team, its team) matches the published patterns for human-data operations, data partnerships and acquisition, evaluations, RL environments, training-data research, robot data collection or AI tutors and raters.

Stated salary

The pay range the posting publishes (a yearly base range for staff roles, an hourly rate for contract roles).

Window

A reading of every board today; the report has no monthly editions because past boards cannot be read again. Download the data to keep a copy.

What this data cannot tell you

• Labs without a public board API (Meta, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Nvidia, Google DeepMind's own careers site) cannot be read, so their hiring is not counted.
• An open role is hiring intent, not headcount: some companies keep one evergreen posting per team, others post one per location.
• A role counts by its title and team against published patterns; a role described only in its text is not counted.

How the job feeds are read and roles are classified: site methodology. How fresh, complete and consistent the data is, checked every day: data quality and coverage.

Editions

This report reads the live job boards every day. Past boards cannot be read again, so it has no monthly editions: download the data to keep a dated copy.
