About Human Archive
Human Archive is a data lab modeling human embodied intelligence.
We're researchers from Stanford, Berkeley, NYU GRAIL, UPenn GRASP, JHU Robotics and national robotics champions, backed by Y Combinator and $8.2M.
Hardware — We design, manufacture and calibrate thousands of custom collection rigs, gloves and wrist cameras, with our hardware team in Shenzhen.

Operations — We have 100+ full time team members collecting large-scale multimodal video and sensor data from 100,000+ contributors and 500+ industry partners across homes, hotels, restaurants, agriculture, manufacturing, construction and retail in 30+ countries. In India, our operations are headquartered in Bengaluru and run live across Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Goa etc.
Software — We develop custom 3D perception and annotation models tailored to our hardware, and train robot policies on our datasets. Our SLAM and hand-pose models achieve state-of-the-art performance.
Despite decades of research, we still barely understand how humans think, move or interact with the world.



Human Archive's datasets are foundational infrastructure for automating manual labor, increasing global abundance and advancing our understanding of the brain.
About the role
As an Operations Manager, you own the deployment. From the moment equipment leaves our storage point to the moment the day's data is verified, it is yours to run — a team of five to six operators, a live site, and a set of problems nobody can solve for you from a desk.
The stakes are real. Robots learn from what we capture. A deployment run well produces data that trains machines to work with their hands; a deployment run badly produces footage nobody can use. That call gets made on the floor, by you, in the moment.
It suits someone who is equally comfortable talking to a mechanic mid-shift and holding a strict data protocol when a site is pushing back. Most people can do one. We are looking for the ones who can do both.
