The posting

Workstream is a mission-driven company building the all-in-one HR, payroll, and hiring platform for managing the hourly workforce. There are 2.7 billion hourly workers, making up 80% of the global workforce, but this market has been heavily underserved by technology and deserves better. Workstream has been purpose-built for the hourly workforce from day one so that these businesses and their employees can thrive.

Our customers include leading brands from multiple sectors, including Burger King, Carl's Jr./Hardee's, IHOP, KFC, and Culvers. We are a high growth series B company and quickly expanding our product portfolio to deliver on our vision. We are backed by legendary VCs and industry experts like Founders Fund, BOND, and Coatue.

In addition to our core business, Workstream is home to a small, fast-moving Robotics team focused on advancing the next generation of artificial intelligence and robotics. We partner with a leading AI and robotics company to produce high-quality, large-scale egocentric (first-person) video datasets that help train advanced AI models.

Grow With Us

Workstream is looking for a Team Lead for Global Data Operations. In this role, you will serve as the frontline leader bridge between the Operations Manager and the Video Data Contributors / Quality Auditors. You will be responsible for daily team performance, real-time technical troubleshooting, and auditing video footage for accuracy, camera alignment, and data compliance.

This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in fast-paced tech operations, possesses strong attention to detail, and enjoys coaching a distributed team.

Day In The Life

Team Leadership & Daily Operations

  • Lead, mentor, and monitor the daily output of a team of Video Data Contributors and Quality Reviewers.
  • Track key team metrics including daily upload volume, active contributor retention, and error rates.
  • Conduct regular Q&A sessions and support office hours to answer contributor questions on filming protocols and hardware setup.
  • Foster high engagement and lower churn across a contract-based/distributed team.

Technical Guidance & Quality Assurance

  • Perform regular audits on uploaded video data to verify usability, camera positioning, lighting, and recording angles.
  • Troubleshoot hardware setup issues (wearable multi-camera setups, head-straps, smartphone mounts) and resolve technical uploading bottlenecks (Google Drive, cloud tools).
  • Identify recurring failure patterns in footage and work with the Operations Manager to update guidelines and training materials.

Onboarding & Hardware Coordination

  • Support the onboarding of new team members, conducting technical readiness checks and verifying required hardware/camera specs prior to project launch.
  • Help manage local physical lab activities and equipment usage when transitioning to office-based operations.

Compliance & Administration

  • Enforce strict data privacy protocols (e.g., ensuring no PII or non-consented faces/sensitive items are present in footage).
  • Track contributor hours, video task completion rates, and submission logs to assist management with compensation and bonus payouts.

Recruitment Support & Onboarding Coordination

  • Application Screening Support: Assist the Recruiting team by screening incoming applications against specific operational criteria (e.g., camera/smartphone hardware specs, workplace access, schedule availability).
  • Onboarding Execution: Coordinate with People Ops to guide qualified candidates through document completion, NDA signing, and equipment setup, resolving bottlenecks to get contributors ready quickly.
  • Pipeline Status Tracking: Track squad capacity and candidate conversion rates, flagging upcoming contributor shortages to the Recruiting team to trigger hiring drives before production targets are missed.

Financial Reconciliation & Payroll Coordination

  • Hours & Data Reconciliation: Audit weekly contributor activity logs against verified, usable video uploads to ensure the company only pays for approved footage.
  • Finance Reporting: Consolidate squad data into accurate "Ready-to-Pay" reports and submit them to the Finance/Payroll team on scheduled payout cycles.
  • Payout Support & Dispute Resolution: Act as the primary administrative contact for contributor payment inquiries, investigating and resolving discrepancies between submitted logs and final payouts.

Who You Are

  • Leadership Experience: 3+ years of experience as a Team Lead or Senior Specialist in BPO, AI Data Annotation, Marketplace Operations, or Tech Operations.
  • Technical Aptitude: Tech-savvy with hands-on experience using multi-camera hardware, smartphones, or recording wearables. Ability to quickly master and teach multi-angle recording nuances.
  • Eye for Quality: Exceptional attention to detail with experience auditing visual or data-driven deliverables.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written English communication skills; comfortable hosting team syncs and drafting operational guidelines.
  • Adaptability: Comfortable working with distributed/gig workforce structures and operating in a high-growth startup environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience in AI/Computer Vision data collection, Data Labeling, or Media Production/QA.
  • Experience in hardware tracking or logistics management.
  • Exposure to working with cross-functional global teams (US and Philippines).

Working Conditions & Requirements

  • Work Setup: Initial remote/work-from-home setup, transitioning to a hybrid/office-based setup in Metro Manila (2 to 4 days per week).
  • Compliance: Strict policy on moonlighting; candidates must agree to background

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
