• London
• On-site
• Mid-level
• Permanent

Owns the full training loop for vision-language-action policies, from pre-training a base model on multi-embodiment trajectory corpora through behaviour cloning and RL fine-tuning to deployment. Builds continuous data pipelines that ingest synthetic and teleop data, version and weakly-supervise it, and surface failure cases for retraining, working with MLOps and Data Collection teams on distributed training and edge inference.

• London
• On-site
• Entry level
• Permanent · Shift work

Teleoperate humanoid robots and follow structured procedures to capture high-quality multimodal datasets—video, motion trajectories and task logs—for training AI models. Work hands-on on-site with tools such as the Universal Manipulator Interface, with a large share of time spent annotating and labelling data to strict guidelines. Shift-based on a weekly rota with full training provided and no technical background required.
