Physical Intelligence is hiring : Robot Operator in San Francisco

Data collection is key to our mission, and as a Robot Operator, you’re essential to making that happen. Your role involves delivering high-quality, high-volume demonstrations of tasks by teleoperating our robots. You’ll either lead the robot’s movements, which it mirrors, or guide it using controllers we have designed. These tasks can range from something as simple as folding a batch of laundry to more complex activities like multi-step electronics assembly. Our operators are meticulously detail-oriented, possess good dexterity, and enjoy taking on new challenges. If this sounds like you, we’d love to connect!

This job will require you to stand at a desk for the shift (8 hours). You will need to use both arms and hands to operate the robots. The robots are controlled by you, either by your arms, which operate as the leader and the robot arms follow to complete the task, or with a joystick-like controller.
