About the Role

What if the way you make your morning coffee, fold laundry, or open a cabinet door could help teach the next generation of AI-powered robots? We're looking for Robotics Technicians to capture real-world human movement and interaction on video — giving robots the visual data they need to understand and navigate everyday life.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role open to anyone with a smartphone and a willingness to follow clear recording guidelines. No robotics knowledge, technical background, or prior experience required.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
