About this role

Dyna Robotics is hiring a Data Annotation Specialist, full-time, on-site in Redwood City, CA, in the ROBOTICS sector.

Dyna Robotics builds general-purpose robots powered by a proprietary embodied AI foundation model with top-in-industry generalization and real-world performance. Already deployed with customers across multiple industries, our robots do commercial-grade work in the physical world. Our team comes from Google DeepMind, Meta, and Cruise, and we're backed by CRV, First Round, and other leading investors.

The Role:

As a Data Annotation Specialist at Dyna Robotics, you will be pivotal in iterating on our AI system by annotating data on various diverse tasks performed by robots. Your will directly influence the performance of our robotic arms, helping them become more accurate and efficient. You will work closely with our engineering and research teams, ensuring data is labeled of the highest quality and meets required standards.

What You'll Do

  • Manually annotate video sequences (boxes/masks/keypoints), track IDs, and label actions & temporal segments

  • Maintain data integrity by applying guidelines and QC checks; resolve ambiguities and fix errors

  • Leverage pre-annotation/autolabeling tools to boost throughput—validate/correct model prelabels and tune auto-tracking/segmentation pipelines

What You'll Bring

  • Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent experience)

  • Strong attention to detail; consistent application of guidelines

  • Ability to follow detailed instructions and work independently with minimal supervision

  • Clear written communication and a collaborative attitude

Bonus Points For

  • Hands-on experience annotating video (boxes/masks/keypoints, action labels, ID tracking)

  • Proficiency with annotation tools; comfort with pre-annotation/autolabel review and correction

  • Familiarity with QA practices (inter-annotator agreement, spot checks, golden sets)

  • Knowledge of common annotation formats (e.g., COCO, YOLO, MOT/KITTI) and basic video concepts (frame rate, codecs)

Don’t let a checklist stop you. Data shows that underrepresented groups often only apply if they meet 100% of the criteria. We value problem-solving and grit over keyword matching. If you’re passionate about robotics, no matter your discipline, we want to hear from you, even if you don't check every box.
