• At Company, we’re building the next generation of generalist intelligent robots. We own the full robotics stack from high-performance hardware and robot systems to the infrastructure and state-of-the-art foundation world models that control our robots. Our robots are designed to be generalists capable of operating in complex, real-world environments and handling long-tail edge cases, made possible by our cutting edge research and end-to-end system design. We've raised over $450M and are investing aggressively in model research, infrastructure, hardware development, and manufacturing scale-up to make generalist robotics a reality.
• Role Description:
• Tier 2 Robot Pilots are trusted, high-output robot teleoperators who reliably collect high-quality
• manipulation data using VR teleoperation systems. Pilots operate with minimal supervision,
• consistently meet data throughput and quality standards, and can troubleshoot routine issues
• (such as basic software workflow and lab operating issues). They also support researchers with
• executing evaluation protocols and providing clear feedback on robot and model behavior.
• Primary Duties
• ● Collect high-quality robot training data by teleoperating robotic systems using VR
• equipment and hand controllers; demonstrate manipulation tasks repeatedly and
• consistently.
• ● Meet daily performance expectations for data collection throughput, quality, and
• consistency (including correct task setup and complete metadata/notes).
• ● Follow task specifications and SOPs precisely, maintain discipline around experiment
• changes and “what changed” between sessions.
• ● Maintain a safe work environment and adhere to lab safety procedures at all times.
• ● Support evaluations by running structured evaluation protocols alongside researchers
• and accurately reporting results and issues.
• Additional Tasks:
• ● Troubleshoot and report issues with robot hardware/software and teleop tooling, capture
• relevant logs/notes and escalate with clear reproduction steps.
• ● Perform basic operational maintenance per SOP (workspace reset between sessions,
• calibration checks, battery swaps or component swaps as required).
• ● Review/annotate recordings as needed (lightweight review for quality checks, labeling
• support, or spot audits).
• ● Participate in process improvements to increase data collection efficiency, reduce
• downtime, and improve data quality.
• ● Occasional travel to customer/partner sites (domestic & international) to support on-site
• robot data collection, including operating in new environments, coordinating with site
• contacts, and following site-specific safety and security requirements.
• ● Occasional weekend overtime data collection (maximum one day per weekend),
• balanced with flexible scheduling and time off during the week.
• Required Qualifications:
• ● Strong VR / controller proficiency (VR gaming or similar real-time control experience).
• ● Ability to maintain focus while operating in VR for extended periods and follow detailed
• written/video instructions.
• ● Comfort working hands-on with robotics equipment in a lab environment; safety-minded
• and detail-oriented.
• ● Comfortable with Linux / command line (running programs with arguments, checking
• logs).
• ● Ability to debug routine issues and distinguish between environment/setup vs software
• vs hardware problems.
• ● Ability to write detailed bug reports when issues arise, document failure modes and
• participate in investigative efforts to diagnose and recover quickly.
• ● Reliable attendance and punctuality; able to work a fixed full-time shift (AM or PM).
• ● Basic technical literacy: comfortable navigating computer tools, documenting work, and
• communicating clearly.
• ● Able to stand/sit for extended periods, perform repetitive motions, and support physical
• reset tasks as needed (may include lifting/moving items up to ~30 lbs, squatting/standing
• during resets).
• Preferred:
• ● Experience with robotics systems, lab work, automation, manufacturing/assembly, or
• other precision technical work.
• ● Experience supporting structured experiments/evaluations with researchers or
• engineers.
• ● Experience collecting teleop demonstration data (robots, simulators, or other real-time
• control systems).
