About the role
Give Our Robots Consciousness
Physical AI can't be trained on internet data alone. Robots need to learn skills in the real world — by observing, interacting with, and operating in real environments. That's the idea behind NEURA Gym: a global network of physical training centers where robots learn industrial tasks/skills directly from experienced human operators/ the people who know these processes inside out.
As a Data Operator, you'll work hands-on with the full range of NEURA Robotics’ platforms (including the cutting-edge 4NE1 humanoid robots), helping collect the real-world data that trains our AI systems. Through teleoperation, testing, and robot setup, you'll play a key role in improving the intelligence and performance of our robots.
What you'll do
- Remote control NEURA’s robots through teleoperation to perform real-world tasks
- Wear motion capture equipment while performing designated movements and actions based on project requirements
- Execute structured data collection sessions to generate high-quality AI training data
- Set up, calibrate, and prepare robots for testing and demonstrations
- Monitor robot performance and closely work with on site service technicians to promptly resolve issues. Document observations.
- Work with AI and Robotics Engineers to improve robot performance and capabilities
Why join NEURA Robotics?
- Work side by side with cutting edge robots every day
- Help train the AI powering the next generation of robotics
- Gain hands-on experience with robotics hardware and teleoperation
- Be part of a fast-growing team shaping the future of intelligent robots
You're a great fit if you...
- Are used to work a fast paced, production-plant-like environment, including shifting
- Have a hands-on background in skilled crafts such as mechanics, electrics, automotive or similar
- Are reliable, adaptable, and eager to learn
- Experience with robotics or automation is a plus, but not required
- You speak English, German is a plus, but not required
Physical requirements
- Comfortable standing and moving for extended periods of time
- Good hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills
- Able to perform repetitive teleoperation tasks with accuracy and focus
