** About the job*
* Google's custom-designed machines make up one of the largest and most powerful computing infrastructures in the world. The Hardware Testing Engineering team ensures that this cutting-edge equipment is reliable. In the R&D lab, you design test equipment for prototypes of our machinery and develop the protocols used to scale these tests for the entire global team. Working closely with design engineers, you give input on designs to improve our hardware until you're sure it meets Google's standards of quality and reliability.

As the Specialist Humanoid Tele-Operator, you will be part of a very small team focused on setting the standard for how our robots can operate. This full-time position exists in the Deepmind Embodied Systems Engineering Team. You will sit at the intersection of Engineering and Operations, driving prototype hardware and software and, together with Deepmind engineers, evaluate how good it is.

You will be responsible for operating robotic systems with precision and focus, and providing subjective and objective feedback to engineers, technicians and management.

You will be an instrumental part of the development process, and responsible for 'writing the manual' on how to operate the humanoid system. You will help define training programs and mentor new operators.

Artificial intelligence will be one of humanity's most transformative inventions. At Google Deep Mind, we are a pioneering AI lab with exceptional interdisciplinary teams focused on advancing AI development to solve complex global challenges and accelerate high-quality product innovation for billions of users.
