About

Hello! I’m Doron Kanar, a detail-oriented musician and AI data annotator with a Bachelor of Music (Honours) and over a decade of experience across technical, creative, and data-focused roles. I currently work as an Independent Contractor AI Data Annotator, applying hands-on evaluation, QA, and data-labeling to AI projects while drawing on a strong musical background.

Beyond the AI space, I have served as Musical Director, Conductor and Clarinet Player at Bet David Synagogue in Johannesburg since 2012, and I perform trombone and vocals with the African Renaissance Ensemble. I enjoy teaching, arranging, and collaborating across disciplines, and I thrive in remote, hybrid, or on-site settings across international time zones.
