Geography & Map Expert (AI Community) at TELUS

About the job

• Do you have a degree in Geography or Urban Planning? AI models power the maps we use every day for delivery and travel, but they often struggle to understand the real world. At TELUS Digital, we are looking for Geography enthusiasts to be the "eyes on the ground" for our AI. You will look at satellite images and maps to make sure the AI is identifying roads, buildings, and landmarks correctly. You help the AI understand exactly where things are.

What You’ll Do (Simple Tasks):

• Confirming Landmarks: Look at a photo from space and tell the AI: "Yes, that is a hospital," or "No, that is actually a shopping mall."
• Route Checking: Look at a map and make sure the AI isn't suggesting a route that is impossible (like driving a car through a park or a walking path).
• Naming Places: Use your local knowledge to make sure the AI is using the correct names for neighborhoods, streets, and natural features in your region.
• Environmental Tagging: Help the AI identify things like forests, rivers, or new construction sites on a map.

Qualification path

Mandatory Qualifications:

• Education: A minimum of a Bachelor’s Degree in Geography, Urban Planning, or Environmental Science.
• Native Language: Native-level proficiency in your primary language. You know your local area better than any global map does.
• English Proficiency: Basic (B1) English to communicate with our project team.
• Visual Accuracy: You are good at reading maps and recognizing shapes and patterns in satellite photos.
