About Maven

Maven Robotics designs, builds, and deploys intelligent robotics for logistics and manufacturing. Maven is building the first general-purpose robotics system for industrial work. Our mission is to activate autonomous labor at scale and build toward infinitely elastic industrial capacity. We’re a team of engineers, researchers, and operators who have spent our careers working on the hardest problems in AI, robotics, engineering, and autonomous systems. We work at the intersection of advanced research and real-world engineering, turning ideas into prototypes and deployed systems.

At Maven, we build around the realities of industrial work. The robots are designed from first principles for complex physical environments and rigorous commercial standards. They master real tasks that deliver immediate impact, industrial-grade reliability, and intelligence that compounds at scale. We’re growing an ambitious team of people who think in systems, move quickly, and are builders at heart.

About the Role

As a Data Collection Operator at Maven Robotics, you’ll operate robots using advanced data collection systems and play a hands-on role in developing cutting-edge AI-powered robotics. You’ll work closely with our robotics and AI teams to collect high-quality motion and behavioral data used to train robots to perform complex tasks in dynamic, real-world environments.

What You’ll Do

• Operate robots using advanced data collection systems
• Guide robots through designated motions, manipulation tasks, and workflows to collect high-quality demonstration data
• Upload, validate, and organize collected data used for training AI models
• Identify, troubleshoot, and report operational issues during data collection
• Follow robot bring-up, calibration, and shutdown procedures to ensure safe, reliable operations
• Collaborate closely with AI, perception, and controls engineers to refine teleoperation pipelines and improve robot behaviors
• Maintain a safe, efficient, and organized work environment throughout data collection and operations

What We’re Looking For

• Excellent physical coordination, spatial awareness, and attention to detail
• Ability to operate data collection equipment for extended periods while maintaining focus
• Comfortable standing, walking, and operating equipment for 8+ hours per day
• Quick learner who can efficiently master new physical tasks, tools, and workflows
• Strong problem-solving skills and adaptability in a fast-paced environment
• Collaborative, receptive to feedback, and excited about robotics, AI, and emerging technologies

Nice to Have

• Experience with teleoperation systems, humanoid robots, or robotic manipulators
• Familiarity with VR interfaces, haptic devices, motion tracking, or robotic control systems
• Basic hardware and software troubleshooting skills during robot teleoperation
• Enthusiasm for developing and scaling next-generation robotic systems
