Position Overview
This Expert — Data Insights Analyst opportunity through Ethos in Dubai UAE involves creating, evaluating, and refining AI-generated documents, spreadsheets, and slide decks across six core professional analytical workflows — using your 4+ years of data insights experience to assess and improve the quality of large language model outputs on tasks that match the day-to-day work of a senior business data analyst. You bring deep expertise in BI dashboards, KPI reporting, SQL data pulls, data quality validation, metric definition, and self-serve reporting templates — applying that expertise to train a leading AI lab’s language model to produce professional-grade analytical deliverables that match the standard that business stakeholders, executives, and data teams actually require.
Why This Role Matters: As Data Insights Analyst expert training a foundational AI lab’s language model from Dubai, you are not reviewing documents for their own sake — you are establishing the quality standard that the model learns to reproduce for millions of professionals who will use it to create business dashboards, executive performance reports, SQL data pull documentation, and self-serve analytics templates. When you evaluate whether an AI-generated KPI dashboard narrative accurately reflects the underlying data story, correct a model-produced metric definition glossary that conflates revenue and gross margin, or refine a monthly business performance deck that presents the right data but frames it in a way no real analyst would — your expert judgment is the training signal that determines how useful this language model actually becomes for data professionals worldwide. That is why your expertise is worth $80 per hour to a frontier AI lab.
What You Will Do as a Data Insights Analyst Expert
AI-Generated Analytical Output Creation, Evaluation & Refinement
- Create, evaluate, and refine AI-generated documents, spreadsheets, and slide decks across core professional analytics workflows — applying your deep data analyst expertise to assess whether AI outputs meet the quality standard that real business stakeholders expect
- Test and evaluate AI model performance on executive KPI dashboard creation — assessing whether the model correctly structures metrics, selects appropriate visualisation approaches, and frames data narrative for a senior executive audience
- Review and refine AI-generated monthly business performance decks — evaluating whether slide structure, data selection, trend narrative, and insight framing match the standard of a senior business data analyst’s actual output
- Assess AI-produced ad hoc SQL data pull documentation — evaluating query logic, result interpretation, and documentation clarity against real professional SQL analysis standards
Data Quality, Metric Standards & Self-Serve Reporting
- Evaluate AI-generated data quality and validation checklists — applying your professional data governance expertise to assess whether the model correctly identifies common data quality issues, validation techniques, and remediation approaches
- Review and refine AI-produced metric definition glossaries — ensuring model outputs correctly define business metrics, avoid common conflation errors, and reflect the precision that data teams and business stakeholders require for consistent KPI measurement
- Assess AI-generated self-serve reporting templates for business stakeholders — evaluating whether template structure, data source guidance, filter logic, and formatting conventions match the standard that empowers non-technical stakeholders to use analytics independently
- Provide detailed, structured feedback and refinements on all AI-generated outputs — building the high-quality training signal that enables the AI lab’s language model to learn professional data analyst standards accurately and reliably
