About the Role
Join a team supporting physical AI projects by collecting high-quality data from real-world human movement and manipulation. Your recordings and task evaluations will help train embodied AI systems to interact with the physical world.
What You'll Do
Operate robots through teleoperation using VR controllers or leader arms while data is recorded.
Capture clear egocentric task footage with head-mounted cameras.
Perform and document hands-on tasks such as folding, sorting, assembling, and cooking.
Set up and operate motion capture and sensor systems, including motion capture cameras, IMUs, and LiDAR.
Film, photograph, and scan physical spaces, work areas, and objects for scene data.
Evaluate robot performance on assigned tasks and score results.
What We're Looking For
Zero to five years of experience in robotics operations, teleoperation, motion capture, VFX, camera or drone operation, laboratory work, autonomous vehicle testing, or skilled trades.
Experience operating physical equipment or sensors with careful, repeatable technique, such as robots, camera rigs, drones, motion capture systems, test vehicles, or precision tools.
Ability to follow written capture protocols and accurately log each recording.
Familiarity with ROS or ROS 2, VR controllers, leader-follower teleoperation, OptiTrack or Vicon, IMUs, LiDAR, GoPro, or head-mounted cameras is helpful.
Ability to complete projects at home or work with provided equipment, or travel for on-site projects.
Compensation & Benefits
Compensation is $20 to $40 per hour, depending on project, field, and experience. Payment is based on hours worked.
Location
Remote projects are available, with some assignments requiring on-site work. Some projects can be completed from home or your workplace using provided equipment.
