About Dean Barbella

I help AI Research Engineers solve the most critical bottleneck in the frontier model lifecycle: High-Fidelity Alignment Data.At Tiki AI, we don’t just \'label data\'—we engineer the human-centric feedback loops required for RLHF, Chain-of-Thought (CoT) verification, and Constitutional AI. My focus is providing Research and Data Ops teams at labs with expert-level annotations that move the needle on model reasoning and safety.Scaling Expert Feedback: Transitioning from generalist crowdsourcing to domain-expert reasoning (Code, STEM, Legal, Reasoning).Alignment Fidelity: Reducing \'model collapse\' and reward hacking through high-quality preference modeling and RLTHF frameworks.Technical Integration: Designing data pipelines that sync directly with your training stacks via API/MCP, ensuring data provenance and ISO/IEC 5259 compliance.If you\'re tackling the challenge of \'Human-in-the-loop\' at scale, let’s connect to discuss how we can build the \'Human Anchor\' your next training run needs.
