Imagery Analyst — Drone & Maritime

Remote, U.S.-based

Data labelingData annotationLabeling accuracyAttention to detail

About the role

micro1 is engaging imagery annotators for a Navy project working with drone and maritime sensor imagery. This role requires an active DoD Common Access Card — if you don’t have one, this project isn’t a fit, but we run other annotation projects without that requirement.

The work is precise and repetitive: you review object labels that a machine generated, fix the ones that are wrong, and add the ones it missed. No AI experience required. What matters is a careful eye and the discipline to stay accurate across long sessions.

Scope of Work

  • Review machine-generated bounding boxes on still imagery and correct the ones that are off.
  • Find and label objects the model missed.
  • Apply the labeling guidelines consistently across every image.
  • Work within a secure Navy environment using the provided tools.
  • Maintain steady throughput — you’re paid per submitted image.
  • Flag ambiguous cases to the team instead of guessing.
  • Move into video frame annotation as the project expands.

What you’ll bring

  • U.S. citizenship and an active DoD Common Access Card (CAC).
  • Strong attention to detail and the patience for repetitive, accuracy-critical work.
  • Experience with data labeling or bounding box annotation is a plus, but not required.
  • Familiarity with aerial, maritime, satellite, or thermal imagery is a plus.
  • Comfortable learning new labeling software.
  • Clear written and verbal communication.
