About Dexmate

Dexmate is building the foundation for physical AI — combining a new generation of robots with a universal Physical AI OS, making robots as easy to build and deploy as software. Today, robotics is fragmented, slow, and closed: most builders are forced to reinvent the same stack again and again, and most ideas never make it past the prototype stage. We exist to change that.

Our mission is to democratize robotics by lowering the barrier to entry, delivering a plug-and-play platform for developers, researchers, and enterprises, and cultivating an open ecosystem that accelerates the evolution of physical AI.

If you want to help shape the next layer of human capability — and believe the future of robotics should be built together, not in isolation — we'd love to build it with you.

The Role

You will operate our robots through a wearable exoskeleton system to generate the high-quality data that trains them. This is not a simulation role. This is real hardware, real environments, and real task execution.

This is a contract (1099) position based on-site at our Fremont lab, with hours and duration aligned to active data collection campaigns.

You’ll perform structured tasks repeatedly and precisely so we can collect diverse and high-quality data for our developers. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role where consistency and attention to detail matter.

Why This Role Matters

Every movement you make becomes training data. That data is what enables robots to learn real-world tasks — from simple manipulation to complex workflows. If you want to work hands-on with cutting-edge robotics and directly shape how machines learn to interact with the physical world, this contract role is for you.

Responsibilities

• Teleoperate robotic arms using Dexmate’s exoskeleton system (your movements directly control the robot)
• Execute predefined manipulation tasks (picking, placing, sorting, assembly, etc.)
• Repeat tasks to generate high-volume, high-quality training data
• Follow structured task instructions and data collection workflows
• Execute variations of tasks based on engineering needs
• Provide feedback on system behavior, usability, and data quality
• Maintain safe and controlled operation in a lab environment

Minimum Qualifications

• Strong hand-eye coordination and spatial awareness
• High attention to detail
• Ability to follow instructions precisely and consistently
• Comfortable with repetitive, precision-focused work
• Ability to stay focused for extended periods
• Reliable and safety-conscious

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with VR/AR systems (Meta Quest, Apple Vision Pro, etc.)
• Familiarity with gaming or simulation environments
• Exposure to robotics, teleoperation, or similar systems
