Robotics Data Generalist

Job Title: Robotics Data Generalist

Job Type: Contract (Full-time or Part-time)

Location: United States

Data capture sessions will take place in controlled environments near major university robotics programs.

Role Overview We are building real-world datasets used to train robotics systems.

This role involves participating in structured data capture sessions designed to generate high-quality training data for embodied AI systems. Participants will follow guided protocols to perform a variety of physical tasks in controlled environments.

This is a paid opportunity to contribute directly to the development of Physical AI.

What You'll do

1. Participate in structured data capture sessions under guided protocols
2. Perform a range of everyday interaction and manipulation tasks
3. Follow detailed instructions to ensure consistency across recordings
4. Help maintain organized data capture workflows
5. Work alongside a small team focused on building high-quality robotics datasets

Who this is for

Sessions will take place near the following universities, so anyone able to attend in-person nearby is welcome to apply:

• Stanford University

• University of California, Berkeley

• UCLA

• University of Southern California

• Carnegie Mellon University

• Georgia Institute of Technology
