Robotic Data Operations

About Us

Sieve is a multimodal lab curating the world’s highest-quality training datasets, spanning video, audio, images, text and 3D. We combine exabyte-scale data infrastructure with novel multimodal understanding techniques to push the frontier of foundation models. We exist to solve one of the biggest bottlenecks in AI: high-quality training data.

Why Now

Robots and physical AI learn from footage of real people doing real work in many different environments. We’re building Sieve’s collection network country by country, and we need hands-on operators who can get sites live, keep them running and help scale a new market from its first deployment.

About the Role

As a Robotics Data Operations Associate, you’ll be on the ground making data collection happen. You’ll help sign up partner businesses, set up camera rigs on site, train workers, check footage quality and keep deployments running day to day. You’ll report to the Country Lead, work closely with our U.S. team, and take on more ownership as the market grows.

This is a role for someone who likes being in the field, solves problems quickly and wants to grow into leading operations.

What You’ll Do

• Launch sites. Visit businesses, explain how Sieve works, run short paid pilots and help turn them into ongoing partners.
• Run deployments. Set up and maintain recording hardware, onboard and train workers, and fix issues on site so collection keeps moving.
• Own quality. Review footage against our quality standards, spot problems early and work with sites to fix them.
• Manage hardware and logistics. Track devices, coordinate shipping and storage with logistics partners, and keep spares ready.
• Track the numbers. Report weekly on active sites, accepted hours, quality and cost per site, and flag risks before they become problems.
• Support compliance. Make sure site permissions, participant consents and data-handling steps are complete before recording starts.
• Improve the playbook. Document what works so new sites and new markets can launch faster.

What Success Looks Like

• Sites go live on schedule and keep producing high-quality footage.
• Hardware is accounted for, maintained and where it needs to be.
• Partners find Sieve easy to work with and stay active.
• You’re running more of the operation on your own over time.

Requirements

• 2–6 years of experience in operations, logistics, field work, customer success, consulting or an early-stage startup.
• Experience owning a process from start to finish and improving it.
• Comfort with hardware and technical troubleshooting, plus the willingness to learn new tools fast.
• Strong organization and attention to detail, especially with data, inventory and reporting.
• Clear communication in English and the local language(s) needed to work with partners and site staff.
• Willingness to spend most of your time in the field and travel locally.

Nice to Have

• Experience with robotics, cameras, data collection or hardware deployments.
• Experience in sales, partnerships or business development.
• Experience at a fast-growing startup or launching something new.
• Familiarity with local privacy or data-protection rules.

Growth

This role is a path into operations leadership. As the market scales, strong performers will lead field teams, own regions and help launch Sieve in new countries.
