Robot Operator

In This Role

You will be the key connector between the digital and physical world. You will physically guide and remotely operate (teleoperate) state-of-the-art robots using motion-capture systems. Your physical demonstrations will directly form the training data our neural networks use to learn complex, real-world tasks. You will teach the AI what good looks like.

• Data Capture & Teleoperation: Perform high-volume task demonstrations (e.g., sorting objects, operating tools, door opening, manual assembly, cable manipulation) via motion tracking equipment.

• Quality Assurance: Monitor data stream quality, tag trajectory metadata, and flag anomalies or edge-case physical behaviors to the AI engineering team.

• Hardware & Setup Maintenance: Assist with staging environments, changing end-effectors, suggest hardware/software improvements and basic routine maintenance on the robot fleet.

• Cross-Functional Feedback: Work directly with AI researchers and robotics engineers to iterate on teleoperation controls and data acquisition pipelines.
  

What We're Looking For

• Comfortable piloting various robots for extended duration.

• Strong hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness, and fine motor control.

• Attention to Detail: A preference for an organized, functional workspace and a systematic approach to engineering tasks.

• Fluent in English (spoken), with strong interpersonal and communication skills.
  

Bonus Points If You Have

• Tech-savviness with basic Linux commands, data logging tools, or troubleshooting equipment.

• Experience in gaming, RC piloting, or mechanical assembly is a plus
  

What we offer

• A world-class in-person setup in central Zürich, with excellent prototyping, robotics, and technical infrastructure for hands-on builders

• Ownership from day one, with the ability to iterate quickly and see your impact firsthand in an early-stage startup

• Opportunity to go beyond data capturing and moving into fleet operations

• The opportunity to make a real impact working on some of the biggest challenges of our time

• Visa sponsorship & relocation benefits to hire the best in the world

• Competitive compensation
