We’re training robot AGI to power a proprietary generalist supply chain superhumanoid, the first robot in the world capable of performing thousands of tasks across the supply chain. We’ve raised over $220M at over $1B valuation and formed a strategic alliance with FedEx to build a national network of autonomous warehouses capable of generating many billions in annual revenue. We are a hardcore and obsessed team of the world’s best engineers and operators. If you are obsessed with your craft, enjoy a high-intensity and fast moving high impact environment, are super high agency in getting hard things done and want to be part of building the world’s most legendary robotics company at the most pivotal moment in history, we want to work with you.

We are on a mission to empower and inspire mankind to accomplish legendary feats by inventing robots that liberate us from the menial. We will accomplish this by training robot AGI to invent and build the Autonomous Supply Chain – everything from the inside of factories and warehouses to your front door – powered by generalist superhumanoids.

Our founding team comes from the AI labs at Stanford and Carnegie Mellon and our board of directors include famed robotics and AI legends including Fei-Fei Li (Chief Scientist of AI at Google and Director of Stanford’s AI Lab), Marc Raibert (founder of Boston Dynamics), and Sebastian Thrun (founder of GoogleX, Waymo; Stanford Professor and considered the father of autonomous vehicles).

Position Overview

Nimble Brain turns real-world operational data into the training sets, evaluations, and feedback loops that make our robots smarter every day. That data comes from our data collection sites: teams of skilled operators performing and recording the physical tasks our superhumanoids learn from, shift after shift, at high volume and high quality.

We’re looking for a Data Collection Manager to own one of those sites end to end. This is the top operational job at the site: you run the floor. Operators, supervisors, shift structure, hiring, onboarding, throughput, uptime, safety, morale — if it happens at your site, it’s yours.

This is a hands-on, floor-first leadership role. Success looks like a site that ramps fast and runs like clockwork: new operators certified and productive in days, quality feedback acted on within 24 hours, rigs up, people showing up, and a bench of supervisors you developed yourself.

Responsibilities

• Own daily site operations end to end: collection throughput, quality at the source, rig uptime (with on-site technicians), safety, attendance, and team morale.

• Build and lead the supervisor layer — roughly one shift lead per 8–12 operators — and design the shift structure (including evening shifts) that maximizes rig utilization.

• Hire at volume in partnership with recruiting: run working interviews, make offer deci
