About Relari

Building dexterous robots that learn from human biomechanics. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

You will own the end-to-end operation behind our scaled human-data collection. You will translate research needs into collection procedures, coordinate external data-collection partners across time zones, keep equipment and uploads moving, and ensure that accepted data meets a consistent technical standard. This is a hands-on systems role for someone who can move between people, logistics, data quality, and process design.

What they're looking for

  • Exceptional operational judgment, attention to detail, and follow-through across multiple moving workstreams
  • Experience managing vendors, distributed operations, research operations, data production, logistics, or another high-reliability process
  • Strong written communication and the ability to turn technical requirements into procedures other people can follow consistently
  • Comfort working across time zones and traveling to collection or manufacturing partners when useful
  • Comfort working with structured data, spreadsheets, dashboards, storage systems, and unfamiliar technical tools
  • A systems mindset: you look for recurring causes and improve the process rather than repeatedly fixing individual mistakes
