Growth measured in months, not years. Direct access to the founding team. Own a live site from day one.
Human Archive builds the datasets that teach robots to work with their hands, captured from real people on factory floors, in kitchens and on construction sites across 30+ countries. We're YC-backed with $8.2M raised, and built by researchers from Stanford, Berkeley, NYU GRAIL, UPenn GRASP and JHU Robotics.
The path here moves quickly: Operations Manager, then Regional Manager, then City Head, based on performance rather than time served.

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 positive deployment produces data that trains machines to work with their hands; a bad one 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.

Responsibilities
- Collect and verify camera inventory, batteries and accessories from the local storage point each morning
- Travel with your team to the deployment site and set up for the day's collection
- Brief and manage five to six field operators through the collection plan
- Meet and coordinate with the site point of contact, typically a Director, Operations Head or owner of a factory, resort or restaurant
- Check data quality through the day, including camera framing, battery levels and storage
- Complete and verify the taxonomy for all footage collected on site
- Reconcile inventory at day end and return it to the dark store manager
- Transfer and upload the day's data, and submit the deployment report
