Job Description:

As a Humanoid Robot Operator, you'll have the unique opportunity to work directly with our learning humanoid robots and teach them new behaviors and skills. You will be at the forefront of our operations, deploying the robots for real commercial use cases, identifying issues, and relaying these problems to the right engineering teams. You may also collect new data to train our AI systems and work with the AI team to refine behaviors over time.

Job Responsibility:

  • Be responsible for the humanoid robot operating successfully for the Customer use case
  • Run the robot constantly throughout the day, identifying bugs and problems
  • Relay these issues to the correct engineering team and ensure these problems are fixed
  • May wear teleoperation equipment and guide the robot through designated behaviors
  • Upload collected data to our AI training system
  • Maintain a safe environment for both yourself and the robot during teleoperation
  • Follow proper equipment and robot maintenance procedures, including bring-up and shutdown

Requirements:

  • Willingness to own the operations of the humanoid and drive proper functioning of the robot
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Experience working with robots or troubleshooting mechanical systems
  • Can stand 8+ hours a day and physically manage humanoid hardware
  • Embrace constructive feedback and strive for constant improvement
  • Thrive in a fast paced environment

Nice to have:

  • A passion for helping scale the deployment of learning humanoid robots
  • Excellent physical coordination, spatial awareness, and focus
  • Master new physical tasks quickly and find the optimal way to perform them
