About the role

We’re looking for a high-agency operator who thrives on solving messy problems and can own end-to-end execution around data, cameras, logistics, and systems. This is not a narrow role. You’ll be at the center of making our data engine run—figuring out how to source, capture, move, and structure multimodal data that powers world models.

What You’ll Do

  • Data Capture & Logistics
    • Manage the acquisition, setup, and deployment of specialized camera rigs, sensors, and supporting equipment.
    • Coordinate shipping, sourcing, and vendor relationships (from local suppliers to global OEMs).
  • Process Design & Execution
    • Develop repeatable procedures for data collection and annotation.
    • Document and refine workflows that keep quality high while scaling.
  • Problem Solving in the Wild
    • Rapidly troubleshoot hardware, software, or logistical blockers—whether that’s debugging a capture pipeline or figuring out how to get 200 cameras through customs.
    • Handle one-off operational challenges with creativity and speed.
  • Cross-Team Support
    • Work closely with engineering and research teams to understand what data they need and make it happen.
    • Act as the connective tissue across hardware, software, and logistics.

What We’re Looking For

  • Extreme Ownership: You don’t wait for instructions—you find the problem and fix it.
  • Resourcefulness: You can figure out how to source rare equipment, negotiate with vendors, or design new workflows from scratch.
  • Systems Thinking: You see the patterns in messy processes and turn them into repeatable playbooks.
  • Technical Comfort: Not a researcher or SWE, but comfortable handling data formats, running scripts, and working with engineers.
  • Bias to Action: You get things done quickly and learn by doing.

Why Join

This isn’t a back-office operations job. You’ll be at the frontlines of building the world’s most advanced datasets—the kind that power humanoid robots, AR systems, and next-gen world models.

It’s a role built for someone who thrives in uncertainty, wants their fingerprints on frontier AI/robotics datasets, and is hungry to grow into leading a world-class operations team.
