AI Data Collector

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

About The Role

As a Humanoid Robot AI Data Collector, you will teleoperate humanoid robots and follow well-defined procedures to generate high-quality datasets used for training advanced AI models. You will work hands-on with physical robots using on-site tools and interfaces—such as the Universal Manipulator Interface (UMI)—to execute structured tasks and capture precise data. A significant part of the role involves annotation and labeling, requiring strong focus, accuracy, and pride in craftsmanship.

 

This role is for individuals who thrive in a fast-moving, team-oriented environment; who take ownership, communicate openly, and embrace continuous learning. No technical background or formal education is required; full training is provided. This is a fully on-site role, working hands-on with robots and on-site systems such as UMI, and may involve periods of standing, regular movement, and interaction with physical hardware.

This position is a permanent night shift, with working hours of 10:30 pm - 6:30 am, and may require occasional travel in line with business needs.

 

What You'll Do

• Teleoperate humanoid robots with consistency, precision, and a strong sense of ownership over data quality.

• Perform on-site data collection using tools such as the Universal Manipulator Interface (UMI).

• Capture and organise multimodal data (e.g., video, motion trajectories, task logs) with high accuracy and attention to detail.

• Annotate and label data following strict guidelines, treating the work as a high-skill technical discipline.

Identify anomalies or issues proactively and escalate or solve them at the lowest responsible level.

Suggest improvements to workflows, processes, or tools—everyone contributes to process design.

Maintain clear, transparent documentation of progress and dataset quality.

Move with urgency and focus, ensuring timelines and daily goals are met.

Communicate openly with team members, sharing feedback and observations across functions.

Collaborate respectfully and positively with teammates, helping create a supportive and high-performing culture.

 

We're Looking For:

• No formal technical education required — full training will be provided.

• Comfortable using computers and digital interfaces.

• Exceptional attention to detail and ability to follow precise instructions.

• Strong time management, urgency, and reliability in meeting daily/weekly targets.

• Ability to maintain focus and high-quality output during repetitive tasks.

• Proactive mindset — willingness to take initiative without waiting for direction.

• Clear, transparent communication skills for reporting findings and collaborating with the team.

• Commitment to iterative learning, continuous feedback, and constant improvement.

• Interest in robotics, AI, or emerging technologies is welcome but not required.

 

What We Offer:

• 30+ days time off, including 23 days annual leave, all UK bank holidays, and additional company closure days (including Christmas–New Year shutdown).

• Private healthcare, including virtual and in-person care.

• Pension scheme with 8% total contribution (5% employee, 3% employer) on full earnings.

• Free daily breakfast, catered lunch, and snacks in-office.

• Work at the frontier - collaborate daily with world-class engineers, researchers, and product experts building the next generation of AI and humanoid robotics.

• Real ownership - direct access to founding leadership, meaningful input on product direction, and the ability to drive key initiatives from day one.
