About the Company
Our client is a technology-driven company operating at the intersection of data, infrastructure, and machine learning. They build large-scale datasets that power advanced analytics and AI systems, helping organizations make better decisions using real-world visual and geospatial information. The company operates in a fast-paced, high-ownership environment where data quality and execution excellence are critical to customer success.
Role Overview
The Infrastructure Analyst is responsible for analyzing roadway video and imagery to identify, classify, and document infrastructure conditions — including pavement distresses (cracks, potholes, rutting, raveling), road assets (signage, markings, barriers), and surface conditions. This role ensures accurate, consistent data delivery at scale.
This is an idóneo role for civil engineering graduates who want to apply their technical knowledge of pavements, road construction, and infrastructure assessment in a technology-forward environment. You will define standards, resolve ambiguous edge cases, and act as the final quality authority for datasets.
The role works cross-functionally with Machine Learning and Customer Success teams while leading operational annotation teams. The ideal candidate is decisive, detail-oriented, and thrives in environments where speed, accuracy, and technical judgment must be carefully balanced.




Your Impact
Deliver high-quality, customer-ready roadway condition datasets that directly support machine learning performance and infrastructure decision-making
Apply civil engineering knowledge to accurately identify and classify pavement distresses and road defects
Reduce ambiguity and improve data consistency across large-scale infrastructure assessments
Help scale data operations while maintaining strict quality standards
Enable faster iteration on ML models and stronger customer satisfaction through accurate ground-truth data
Core Responsibilities
Roadway Analysis & Data Creation – 40%
