Casting Coordinator — Columbus, OH

Real-world data is the competitive edge in AI.

HumanSignal is a human data partner for companies building AI models and products. Our customers ship better AI, faster, because we partner with their researchers from real-world data creation to annotation to delivery.

We design and create datasets from scratch, recruit and manage the domain experts who evaluate model output, and run everything through our own platform, Label Studio, the open-source standard for data labeling and evaluation, used by over 1 million practitioners worldwide.

We specialize in the operationally complex: real-world data collection, multimodal pipelines, and multi-step workflows. Advanced ML and AI teams use our enterprise platform to run their own data factories, and our services team to extend their reach where in-house capacity runs out.

If you want to do work that materially shapes how the next generation of AI products gets built, we'd love to talk.

Casting & Talent Coordinator

HumanSignal operates a production studio in Columbus where local performers record on-camera sessions used to train AI systems. We’re looking for a part-time Casting & Talent Coordinator to build and manage a strong, reliable pipeline of local performers. You'll be representing this work to a performing arts community that has questions about AI, so comfort having that conversation directly matters.

What you’ll do

Recruit professional actors, voice actors, aspiring performers, and people with strong natural on-camera presence through in-person and online outreach.

Build relationships across Columbus’s theater, improv, comedy, campus, and creative communities, including attending occasional shows, showcases, campus events, and community meetups.

Manage outreach through job boards, Facebook groups, social platforms, community partners, and other recruiting channels.

Identify people who are engaging on camera, take direction well, and are interested in flexible paid work.

Review portfolios, reels, and applications; schedule and conduct short Zoom readings; and recommend who should move forward, with clear rationale.

Prepare candidates for their initial screening by clearly explaining the format, expectations, and next steps.
