Robot Operator
About this role
About Enact
The next defining technological breakthrough will be in the physical world. We stand at a historical inflection point: bringing general-purpose intelligence into robotics.
At Enact we rethink the entire robotic tech stack from model architectures and data pipelines, to the actuators and sensors that feed the model. Pushing beyond pure vision and language approaches, we build a proprioceptive nerve system, and the cortex that makes sense of it, to solve dexterity through whole-body force-awareness and deploy robots for thousands of tasks in industry and beyond.
We are shaping a company where brilliant and unconventional people thrive together on solving the hardest challenges of our time. We are truth seekers. We reason from first principles, test our beliefs against reality, and trust that the best ideas can come from anyone. We move fast. We care deeply about our work and colleagues and are driven by passion to change the status quo.
If this resonates, we're excited to hear from you.
In This Role
You will be the key connector between the digital and physical world. You will physically guide and remotely operate (teleoperate) state-of-the-art robots using motion-capture systems. Your physical demonstrations will directly form the training data our neural networks use to learn complex, real-world tasks. You will teach the AI what good looks like.
Data Capture & Teleoperation: Perform high-volume task demonstrations (e.g., sorting objects, operating tools, door opening, manual assembly, cable manipulation) via motion tracking equipment.
Quality Assurance: Monitor data stream quality, tag trajectory metadata, and flag anomalies or edge-case physical behaviors to the AI engineering team.
Hardware & Setup Maintenance: Assist with staging environments, changing end-effectors, suggest hardware/software improvements and basic routine maintenance on the robot fleet.
Cross-Functional Feedback: Work directly with AI researchers and robotics engineers to iterate on teleoperation controls and data acquisition pipelines.
What We're Looking For
Comfortable piloting various robots for extended duration.
Strong hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness, and fine motor control.
Attention to Detail: A preference for an organized, functional workspace and a systematic approach to engineering tasks.
Fluent in English (spoken), with strong interpersonal and communication skills.
Bonus Points If You Have
Tech-savviness with basic Linux commands, data logging tools, or troubleshooting equipment.
Experience in gaming, RC piloting, or mechanical assembly is a plus
What we offer
A world-class in-person setup in central Zürich, with excellent prototyping, robotics, and technical infrastructure for hands-on builders
Ownership from day one, with the ability to iterate quickly and see your impact firsthand in an early-stage startup
Opportunity to go beyond data capturing and moving into fleet operations
The opportunity to make a real impact working on some of the biggest challenges of our time
Visa sponsorship & relocation benefits to hire the best in the world
Competitive compensation
