About the role

Data engineer focused on building and curating large-scale multimodal datasets (video, robotics, audio) for world-model training, spanning research and infrastructure, with hands-on data processing and collaboration with researchers.

Responsibilities

  • Build and run data pipelines for large-scale multimodal datasets, from raw video, robotics, and audio through to curated, enriched training data.
  • Pull useful signals out of raw data: detecting speakers, isolating background audio, tracking points and features in video, and other signals that affect what the models learn.
  • Work on the training mix. Dedup, rebalance clusters, and dig into what's actually in the data so we can find gaps and keep it balanced.
  • Work directly with researchers, turning model requirements into a data strategy and their questions into pipeline work.
  • Improve the platform: storage, database layers, throughput, and deployment, so the whole system runs faster and more reliably.

Qualifications

  • Roughly 1 to 5 years of relevant experience.
  • You've worked with real video and/or audio data and know what it takes to process it at scale.
  • You're good at figuring things out and can handle ambiguous data problems.
  • You can switch between platform/infrastructure work and research-facing feature work.
