The Role
Annotate robot episodes, videos, images, and sensor data for robotics AI models. Label objects, actions, task steps, and outcomes; write behavioral descriptions; identify ambiguous cases; perform annotation quality checks; meet accuracy and throughput goals; and report tool or workflow issues to engineering. The role requires high attention to detail, strong written communication, sound judgment, and comfort working under deadlines and ambiguity.

About Genesis AI

Genesis AI is building a universal robotics foundation model — the "brain" that lets robots see, reason and handle objects in the real world. Our models learn from large volumes of robot, simulation and human-demonstration data, and the quality of that data directly shapes how well our robots perform.

The role

We're scaling our labeling team. You'll review and annotate robot and video data that trains and evaluates our models, working side by side with the researchers who use it. Your judgment on hard cases will shape our guidelines, our tools and, ultimately, how our robots behave.

What you'll do
  • Annotate robot episodes, videos, images, and sensor data using internal labeling tools

  • Label objects, actions, task steps, and successes or failures in robot demonstrations

  • Write clear, consistent natural-language descriptions of robot and human behavior

  • Flag ambiguous or edge cases and help define how they should be handled

  • Perform quality assurance checks on teammates' annotations and join regular calibration sessions

  • Meet quality and throughput targets while tracking your own accuracy over time

  • Report tool bugs, workflow friction, and guideline gaps to the engineering team

What we're looking for
  • 2-5+ years of data annotation or labeling experience in a detail-heavy, deadline-driven environment

  • A strong sense of ownership: you see work through to the finish line

  • Drive and urgency: you're hungry to learn, move fast, and keep going on tight deadlines

  • A track record of high-accuracy work at volume, with the ability to hold quality while speed increases

  • Sharp attention to detail and the judgment to spot when instructions fall short

  • Excellent written communication, and the confidence to raise problems early

  • Comfort with ambiguity and shifting priorities in a fast-moving startup

  • Curiosity, coach-ability, and consistency

Bonus Qualifications
  • Prior data annotation, quality assurance, or issue triage experience

Experience with video, 3D, point-cloud, text, or robotics data

  • Interest in robotics, machine learning, or how physical tasks are performed

Genesis AI is an equal opportunity employer.

Pay range reflects the expected hourly rate for this role in the San Francisco Bay Area; final rate depends on skills and experience.

Skills Required

  • 2-5+ years of data annotation or labeling experience in a detail-heavy, deadline-driven environment
  • Strong ownership and ability to see work through to completion
  • Ability to work with drive and urgency under tight deadlines
  • Track record of accurate work at volume while maintaining quality as speed increases
  • Sharp attention to detail and judgment to identify insufficient instructions
  • Excellent written communication and confidence raising problems early
  • Comfort with ambiguity and shifting priorities in a fast-moving startup
  • Curiosity, coachability, and consistency
  • Prior data annotation, quality assurance, or issue triage experience
  • Experience with video, 3D, point-cloud, text, or robotics data
  • Interest in robotics, machine learning, or physical task performance
