## About the role

Build and run data pipelines for large-scale multimodal datasets, from raw video, robotics, and audio through to curated, enriched training data. Pull useful signals out of raw data: detecting speakers, isolating background audio, tracking points and features in video, and other signals that affect what the models learn.

## What they're looking for

- You're good at figuring things out. Give you an ambiguous, poorly-defined data problem and you'll work out what actually matters, then go build it. This is the trait we care about most
- You like the data work itself. Digging through messy multimodal data to find signal is the interesting part for you, not a means to an end
- You can switch between platform and infrastructure work and research-facing feature work, and you see how the two feed each other
- You've worked with real video and/or audio data and know what it takes to process it at scale
- You're comfortable working alongside researchers, translating what they need into concrete data work
- Roughly 1 to 5 years of relevant experience. We're open on seniority and hire for the person, not the title
