Program Manager at Handshake AI, Jan 2026 - Present · 10 mos, Bangalore Urban, Program delivery: own end-to-end delivery for Generative AI training-data and model-evaluation programs serving frontier-lab and enterprise customers — pipeline design, contributor onboarding, throughput and final data delivery across 20,000+ annotation tasks and a 5,000+ contributor pool. Quality systems: designed and documented a six-layer quality stack — in-task self-checks, peer review, internal audit, external audit, deterministic consistency checks and a qualification gate — and produced the first end-to-end map of how each layer's data reconciles. LLM evaluation: built and calibrated LLM-as-judge autograders against human-graded ground truth, and built the deterministic check that detects rating-versus-rationale contradictions — the single largest driver of rejected work on the program. Data integrity: audited the attribution logic behind program reporting and found it was crediting work to current task owners rather than actual submitters, overstating the active contributor count nearly 3x; rebuilt the join and corrected every downstream payout audience. Payout assurance: architected eight successive contributor incentive programs and the audit tooling that adjudicates pay disputes against the raw event log; reconciliation identified a filed payout roughly 2x its defensible ceiling and replaced the metric it was computed from. Analytics & automation: built the delivery analytics layer — BigQuery models plus Hex dashboards with threshold-based alerting delivered to Slack — replacing manual status reporting with daily throughput, approval-rate and pipeline-health visibility for the operator team. Workforce activation: ran the event-driven activation and comms engine for the distributed contributor workforce, lifting activation.
