General Manager, Data Operations
About the role
About our Data Operations team
Our Data Operations team powers David AI's Data Factory, transforming raw audio into high-quality training datasets for leading AI labs. Our mandate is to spin up new data pipelines and run them at a massive scale.
This means starting from a model capability we want a model to unlock, experimenting with different shapes of data and collection strategies, and validating them with researchers. Once an approach works, we industrialize it, building pipelines that can process audio with reliability, quality, and efficiency. We are relentless operators who thrive in ambiguity, equally comfortable prototyping novel workflows as we are managing large-scale production systems.
About this role
As General Manager of Data Operations, you will lead one of the most critical functions at David AI. You’ll own a major slice of our Data Factory: the engine that powers high-quality, scalable data production. You’ll lead the team responsible for building and scaling pipelines, from 0→1 experiments that unlock new model capabilities to 1→N industrialization that processes data reliably and efficiently.
In this role, you will
- Build and lead a team of Data Product Operations Leads, to spin up and scale data pipelines, from early experiments to production systems that generate high-quality audio data at scale.
- Act as a thought partner to executive leadership on how we can evolve and scale delivery capabilities in service of customer needs.
- Continuously monitor and improve pipeline health, spotting issues in sourcing, quality, or process early and owning solutions end-to-end.
- tracking throughput, quality, and cost to guide prioritization and identify where to scale or invest next.
