Field Engineer

Turing Robotics is accelerating the development of frontier physical AI models. We are building diverse datasets of human activity. To do this, we deploy advanced wearable hardware to capture high-fidelity, multimodal data in real-world environments like factories, kitchens, and warehouses.

We are looking for a hands-on Field Engineer to own the technical success of our data collection hardware in the wild. You will be responsible for testing wearable devices, ensuring hardware/software reliability in diverse environments, and driving the iterative design of our Standard Operating Procedures.

You will be the link between our technical team and our field operations - running lab & field testing, capturing feedback, identifying issues, analysing the root cause and ultimately helping design a more resilient system.

• Stress Testing: Put multiple wearable devices through their paces in different conditions (speed, temperature, humidity, dust, lighting etc).
• On-site Debugging: Troubleshoot data capture, connectivity, ergonomics, battery life, and software crashes in real-time to minimize downtime.

• UX/Ergonomics Feedback: Collect detailed feedback from human demonstrators regarding wearable weight, comfort, interference, and heat dissipation during long shifts.
• Technical Reporting: Create structured testing reports to help teams prioritize key fixes and feature requests.
• Feature Validation: Act as the first user for new software features or hardware mods before they are rolled out to the broader operator fleet.

• Process Engineering: Work with the operational team to design the most efficient way to charge, sync, and deploy multiple wearables simultaneously.
• Data Quality Control: Monitor & analyse incoming data streams for quality issues and share feedback & insights with the technical team to help resolve these.
• Training: Build technical training manuals and train non-technical operators on how to handle and maintain the hardware.

• Technical Background: Degree in Mechanical, Electronics, Mechatronics, or Software Engineering (or equivalent hands-on experience).
• Hardware Literacy: You are comfortable working with hardware devices. You’ve ideally worked with embedded systems (Linux/Android), cameras, or IMU sensors.
• Field Grit: You enjoy being out of the office. You are comfortable working in factories, farms, or busy urban centers where conditions aren't perfect.
• Analytical Mindset: You can look at a failing data pipeline and systematically isolate whether the issue is hardware, software, or human error.
• Communication: Excellent English communication skills (written and verbal) to document technical issues for a global engineering team.
• Experience: 2+ years in field engineering, hardware testing, or robotics operations. Experience with wearable tech & vision systems is a major plus.
• Commitment
  
  Required:
  
  20 hours per week minimum.
• Engagement Type:
  Contractor(no medical or paid leave).
• This is a Field Ops role with regular travel requirement.

• Shortlisted candidates will be invited for Technical Interview
