About AI training work (why it matters)

AI training—also called data collection or annotation—is how human expertise is turned into examples machines learn from. For robotics, high-quality video demonstrations of everyday tasks teach models how people actually move and manipulate objects in home environments.

Contributors often work remotely, choose flexible hours, and directly influence how next-generation AI systems behave.

• This work is hands-on, detail-oriented, and directly used to improve real AI systems.
• No prior AI training experience required if you meet the project’s practical qualifications.

The role

As a Household Data Video Capture Specialist you will record and submit video demonstrations of everyday household tasks using a UMI gripper wearable device and associated recording equipment. Your recordings will follow task-specific rubrics so robotics teams can learn from realistic human motion and manipulation.

OpenTrain AI is hiring contractors for a short, focused engagement. The role emphasizes reliable, repeatable data collection and the ability to incorporate reviewer feedback to raise data quality.

• Position type: Contractor, part-time.
• Data type: VIDEO — data collection for personal robotics.

What you'll do

Follow detailed instructions to capture high-quality, specification-compliant videos using the UMI gripper wearable and any required hand-tracking/VR equipment. Submit recordings and written notes, respond to reviewer feedback, and refine your technique as requested.

• Set up and operate recording equipment and the UMI gripper to mimic realistic hand movements while performing tasks.
• Record multiple takes that meet task rubrics and project standards.
• Read and apply written feedback from reviewers; iterate to improve data quality.
• Document any edge cases, failures, or deviations as instructed.

Requirements

The project values practical, real-world knowledge of household tasks and careful execution. Preserve high accuracy with consistent application of rubrics and attentive written communication.

• Fluency in Spanish and English (ability to read instructions and write feedback in both languages).
• Access to a fully equipped Argentine household environment for recording (required).
• Manual dexterity and comfort wearing and operating VR headsets, hand-tracking gloves, and the UMI gripper device.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to follow complex specifications precisely.
• Comfort working independently on remote contractor tasks and iterating based on reviewer feedback.
• Comfort with prolonged VR headset use.

Schedule, pay, and commitment

This engagement runs approximately 4 weeks. The project estimates about 40 hours per week, although the minimum stated time expectation is 20+ hours/week. You will be engaged as a contractor and should plan your schedule accordingly.
