About the role
Human Archive runs large-scale field deployments to collect egocentric robotics data.
We are hiring a Deployment Associate to be our person on the ground at every site. You will be the site lead for your deployment - setting up and running the capture devices, building and maintaining the task taxonomy that defines what gets collected, supervising the workers performing the tasks, and making sure every hour of data that leaves the site is clean, complete, and correctly labelled.
This is the role that decides whether a deployment produces usable data or unusable data. It is hands-on, detail-heavy, and best suited to someone who is equally comfortable talking to workers on a shop floor and enforcing a strict data protocol.

What you will do
Own the taxonomy
- Build and maintain the task and activity taxonomy for each deployment - the breakdown of tasks, sub-tasks, objects, and environments being captured
- Study the site's real workflows and translate them into a clear, consistent, collectable structure
- Keep naming conventions, labels,



and category definitions consistent across sites, days, and operators
- Flag gaps, overlaps, and ambiguous categories, and refine the taxonomy as current environments are onboarded

Run the site
- Act as site lead for the deployment - first point of contact for the client site, the workers, and the internal team
- Brief workers on what is being captured, how, and why, and keep them productive through the day
- Supervise, correct, and re-train operators in real time so capture quality does not drift
- Track daily targets - hours captured, tasks covered, sessions completed - and report progress

Deploy the hardware
- Set up, fit, calibrate, and troubleshoot capture devices (head-mounted cameras, sensors, recorders, batteries, storage)
- Manage charging, storage cards, device assignment, and end-of-day teardown
- Diagnose and resolve device failures on the spot; escalate and swap when they cannot be fixed
- Maintain accurate d
