Role Overview

Apply your visual effects and 3D animation expertise to help create accurate training data for advanced AI systems. This remote contract role focuses on reviewing and annotating video of robotic arms completing real-world tasks, not on creating, animating, or rendering assets. Your understanding of motion, spatial relationships, object behavior, tracking, occlusion, and visual anomalies will help determine what occurs in each video segment and whether tasks are completed correctly.

Key Responsibilities

• Review footage of robotic arms performing tasks according to detailed annotation and grading guidelines.


• Identify and label motion, object interactions, spatial changes, task outcomes, errors, and other relevant events.


• Use knowledge of animation, transforms, trajectories, timing, occlusion, and physical behavior to interpret activity accurately.


• Tag video content precisely and consistently using dedicated annotation tools.


• Flag visual anomalies, tracking difficulties, and ambiguous moments, with concise written explanations.
