Helix Data Creator
Job description
We're hiring Helix Data Creators to power our humanoid robot development. In this hands-on role, you'll wear Figure-provided sensor equipment to guide robots through human-like motions and collect the high-quality motion data that trains our AI models.
This is a full-time 6 month fixed-term position, paid hourly. It's a strong entry point into robotics: high-performing Creators have opportunities to grow into Senior Creator and other lead positions as they become available.
Schedule: This is a 24/7 operation staffed across multiple rotating shifts (Day, Swing, and Night). Specific hours are listed below. Night-shift hours are eligible for a $3/hr differential ($33/hr).
Job responsibilities
- Data collection: Wear sensor suits to perform repetitive, precise physical movements (walking, lifting, reaching) that guide the robot and generate training data, for up to 8 hours per shift.
- SOP adherence: Follow detailed "Ground Truth" movement protocols exactly, with zero deviation, to keep data consistent and high quality.
- Equipment care: Help with donning and doffing sensor suits, follow proper setup and shutdown procedures, and promptly report any hardware issues to your Inventory Team Lead.
- Feedback & quality: Flag bugs or issues during collection, share daily feedback to improve the process, and work comfortably toward daily data-collection targets.
- Safety: Keep a clean, organized workspace and follow ergonomic guidelines to stay safe during repetitive tasks. We want you to speak up early about anything that doesn't feel right.
Job requirements
- Able to perform repetitive standing, walking, lifting, reaching, and full-range limb motions required for motion-capture across an 8+ hour shift
- Excellent physical coordination, spatial awareness, and sustained focus
- Quick to master new physical tasks and find the most efficient way to perform them
- Open to constructive feedback and motivated to keep improving
- Strong attendance and punctuality; reliable, accountable, and able to work both independently and within a small team
- Reliable transportation, and able to travel to different work sites around the Bay Area (locations change regularly)
- Comfortable in a fast-paced startup environment with shifting priorities
- Legally authorized to work in the US
