Job Description

Do you have an interest in robotics or AI? Do you have experience working on research projects or in lab environments? We're looking for a detail-oriented and analytical individual to join our team as a Data Collection Analyst.
Insight Global Evergreen is working with an Embedded AI Robotics technology leader in the San Francisco Bay area, and we're seeking a talented professional to support their data collection efforts.
As a Data Collection Analyst, you'll play a critical role in collecting high-quality data using robotic hardware components via teleoperation. This is an ongoing opportunity with a long-term duration, offering a chance to grow and develop your skills in a dynamic and innovative environment.

Day-to-Day
The Data Collection Analyst will collect data by controlling a robotic arm via teleoperation to perform the following tasks:
o Staging and setting-up equipment for the collection, which may include engaging with engineering, external equipment vendors, internal and external safety evaluators, and the research team to ensure the equipment is set up properly.
o Conducting the collection, including operating complex, experimental collection systems, and debriefing with team leadership as necessary.
o Performing basic troubleshooting of collection systems (hardware and software) and escalating any bugs or issues using internal tools.
o Providing collection support, including data collection, documentation and logging of collections, and tracking of equipment and procedures.
o Contributing to and/or updating existing documentation.
o Completing project work related to collections such as recording and updating collection documentation.
o Attending all required trainings, meetings, and standups.
o Providing feedback for process improvement areas.

Expectations for Success
To be able to successfully execute on the day-to-day responsibilities above, the Data Collection Analyst is expected to:
o Review SOPs and any other relevant documentation and consult with the responsible System Integrator or lead for any questions or clarifications in advance of the collection.
o Stay up-to-date with process and SOP changes for frequently used systems.
o Arrive on-time for shifts and allow additional time, if needed, to review unfamiliar systems or SOPs and for operational set up.
o Arrive on-time and prepared with relevant information or materials for all required trainings, meetings, and standups.
o Approach each collection and project with ability and flexibility. Be prepared to quickly pivot to new tasks, approaches to collections, or steps in documented processes to keep the team moving forward, even during blocking events.
o Ensure highest quality and accuracy of data collection by maintaining a clean and organized collection space.
o Escalate any issues to System Integrators or Engineers and properly document, in detail, the nature of the issue.
o Address any areas for improvement of the collection process in scheduled meetings and/or via internal tools.
o Identify or partner with team leadership on projects and tasks that can be completed during larger blocking events and during planned and unplanned system downtime.

Exact compensation may vary based on several factors, including skills, experience, and education.
