About the role
Senior member of the data collection team in Paris, responsible for hands-on data collection, teleoperation, task setup, and quality control to scale Genesis’ data collection operation while collaborating with Paris research/engineering and Bay Area teams.
Responsibilities
- Help lead the Paris data collection floor. Set the execution and quality bar for day-to-day collection work and help the team scale effectively.
- Own complex collection setups. Take a loosely defined request and turn it into a working, repeatable collection task, including the setup, fixtures, props, environment, and procedure, with minimal support from engineering.
- Create high-quality training data. Wear our gloves and cameras, teleoperate our hardware, and produce precise demonstrations that can be used to train our models.
- Own the full collection workflow. Review and quality-check your work, identify unusable episodes, support annotation, and help ensure that what reaches research is trainable data.
- Build repeatable tasks. Turn new collection requests into clear, repeatable processes that can be executed consistently by other operators.
- Partner with research and model engineering. Translate their requests into physical collection tasks, share observations from the floor, and iterate with them on setups and collection strategy.
- Improve the operation. Identify fixtures, station layouts, procedures, or collection methods that can be improved and help implement those improvements.
- Write and improve the playbook. Own SOPs, quality checks, and training materials for scalable, high-quality operations.
- Guide other operators. Onboard, train, and mentor operators to reinforce consistent execution across the team.
- Run real-robot testing. Partner with reliability and engineering teams to test robots on the floor, document observations, and surface issues.
- Own quality. Review own work and the team's, take feedback, and continually raise the bar.
Qualifications
- You have done precise, repetitive physical work to a high quality bar and can explain what made it good and how you measured it.
- Hands-on robot or glove-based data collection experience is a strong plus, but not required.
- You build, not just run. Can turn vague requests into clean, repeatable tasks with proper fixtures, environment, process, and written procedures.
- You can operate autonomously and own complex collection tasks with limited day-to-day support from engineering.
- You understand quality beyond collection and can identify unusable data and understand why.
- You are ready to lead and have experience training, mentoring, or leading others in hands-on work.
- You work well with research and engineering teams, translating requests into physical tasks and turning observations into feedback.
- You have exceptional attention to detail and notice when setups or data are off.
- You are technically handy: comfortable with Linux, some Python scripting, and hardware assembly/troubleshooting.
- You adapt well in a fast-moving environment and help improve team workflows.
- You communicate well in English (French a plus).
