BLG NYC Data Collector

About the Role/Team

Entrupy is seeking a highly organized and dependable Bags & Leather Goods Data Collector to support the continued growth of our authentication technology. This is a part-time, hourly position working approximately 16–24 hours per week, based primarily in our New York City office.

In this role, you will help build the high-quality datasets that power Entrupy’s authentication systems by scanning luxury and contemporary bags and leather goods, organizing inventory, maintaining accurate records, and supporting the movement of products throughout the data collection process.

You will work hands-on with items from brands such as Hermès, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Dior while contributing directly to the development of AI-powered authentication technology. This is an excellent opportunity for a student or early-career candidate who is passionate about fashion, design, and organizing information and is interested in gaining experience at the intersection of fashion, technology, and data.

This is a data collection and operational support role and does not include responsibility for authenticating products.

• Handle products carefully and maintain an organized, secure workspace.
• Work collaboratively with the Knowledge team to meet timelines and maintain data quality standards.
• Troubleshoot basic hardware, application, or connectivity issues during scanning sessions.
• Occasionally support data collection at local partner sites, generally no more than once per month.
• Assist with additional data collection and inventory-related tasks as needed.

• Familiarity with Google Workspace, particularly Google Sheets, or the ability to learn new tools quickly.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with others.
• Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment while maintaining accuracy and care.
• Willingness to occasionally travel to partner locations within the New York City area.
• Previous experience in fashion, luxury retail, inventory management, logistics, photography, product handling, or data collection is a plus but not required.

We have had an incredible run so far and are laying the foundation for a culture that is fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and rooted in passion, kindness, and positivity. We live by these values – we hire by them, promote them, and celebrate them every day.
