Overview
Robotics Data Annotator Jobs in Remote at A Fast Growing AI Robotics Company
HireArt is helping our client find a Robotics Data Annotator to join its team during an exciting stage of growth.
In this role, you’ll work closely with engineering, product, and research teams to produce high-quality annotations that directly improve robotic system performance. Your work will help train models, refine data quality standards, and shape annotation guidelines and workflows.
We welcome candidates from a variety of backgrounds, including robotics, computer vision, video annotation, linguistics, STEM fields, quality assurance, research, and military experience. Prior robotics experience is not required for consideration; however, candidates with 2–3 years of relevant robotics experience who also meet the preferred qualifications may be considered for the higher end of the compensation range.
The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, reliable, and motivated to contribute to real-world robotics systems. You have strong spatial reasoning, communicate observations clearly, and thrive in deadline-driven environments.
As a Robotics Data Annotator, you will:
- Review robot demonstration and teleoperation videos to segment tasks, subtasks, and manipulation events.
- Write clear, precise descriptions of robot actions and behaviors within each segment.
- Annotate perceptual data, including drawing bounding boxes, labeling object classes, and tracking objects across frames.
- Follow detailed annotation guidelines to ensure consistent, high-quality outputs.
- Identify edge cases, ambiguities, and failure modes, and escalate findings with actionable feedback.
- Perform quality assurance checks on your own and peers’ work to maintain data integrity.
- Execute annotation tasks across multiple robot platforms, environments, and use cases.
- Contribute to improving annotation tools, guidelines, and workflows.
- Ability to perform focused, repetitive tasks with strong attention to detail
- Strong spatial reasoning and ability to interpret motion, object interactions, and manipulation sequences
- Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to clearly describe physical actions and spatial relationships
- Proficiency with Windows, macOS, or Linux, and standard productivity tools
- Authorization to work in the United States (U.S. citizenship required due to business or legal requirements)
- Typing speed of at least 40 words per minute
- Flexibility to work varying schedules, including evenings, weekends, or holidays as needed
Preferred Qualifications:
- 2-3 years of relevant experience in robotics or a closely related robotics environment
- Experience annotating robotics, autonomous vehicle, or computer vision data (e.g., temporal segmentation, action labeling, bounding boxes, object tracking)
- Background in robotics, mechanical engineering, or a related field
- Experience with video annotation workflows (frame-level or clip-level labeling, keyframe interpolation, multi-object tracking)
- Familiarity with command-line tools, GitHub, or version-controlled environments
- Ability to work onsite three days per week, as needed
Benefits:
- Pre-tax commuter benefits
- Employer (HireArt) subsidized Healthcare Benefits
- Flexible Spending Account for healthcare-related costs
- HireArt covers all costs for short- and long-term disability and life insurance
- 401k package
Commitment: This is a full-time, 6-month contract position staffed via HireArt, with the possibility to extend. This position will be hybrid and available to candidates who are local to the Bay Area, CA. Candidates able to work onsite three days per week, as needed, would be preferred.
HireArt values diversity and is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We are interested in every qualified candidate who is eligible to work in the United States. Unfortunately, we are not able to sponsor visas or employ corp-to-corp.
