- Monitor robot performance and intervene or take manual control when needed
- Communicate proactively with the operations team about shift status, blockers, and notable events
What We're Looking For
- Reliable, punctual, and able to commit to the full 5:00 AM – 3:00 PM PT schedule for the full 3-month term
- Comfortable working independently in a remote, computer-based operating environment
- Strong attention to detail and ability to stay focused during repetitive but high-stakes tasks
- Comfortable learning new software/control interfaces
