Remote Household Data Specialist - Video Capture (Vietnam)

What you would do

• Don VR headset and UMI gripper gloves to perform everyday household tasks while recording your hand movements and actions
• Follow detailed task specifications covering hand positioning, movement speed, objects used, and environmental context to ensure data consistency
• Review reviewer feedback on each submission and adjust your technique, hand positioning, or setup to improve quality in subsequent recordings
• Operate and troubleshoot recording equipment, lighting, and internet connectivity within your household environment

Who they want

• Vietnam-based with a fully equipped household environment including kitchen, living spaces, and common household items
• Keen attention to detail with demonstrated ability to follow complex technical specifications without deviation
• Manual dexterity and experience performing physical tasks with precision in varied household settings
• Reliable high-speed internet connection capable of uploading large video files from home; comfort with prolonged VR headset wear

Main skills

What the interview asks about

1. 1.UMI gripper precision and control

   Your ability to use the device naturally while capturing realistic hand movements determines whether the resulting data accurately represents how robots should manipulate household objects.

   For example: “You're recording fragile dishes going into a dishwasher. How would you use the gripper to demonstrate this motion naturally while the device captures your exact hand position and force throughout?”

2. 2.Specification interpretation and compliance

   Recording projects succeed only when every submission meets exact requirements; unclear interpretation of specifications leads to rejected batches and wasted time.

   For example: “You're instructed to record a refrigerator door opening with eye-level camera angle, capturing both the handle approach and interior view. How would you set up to meet all three requirements simultaneously?”

3. 3.Feedback incorporation and adaptation

   Your willingness and ability to incorporate reviewer corrections quickly determines your effective hourly rate and whether you remain on the project long-term.

   For example: “A reviewer flags your gripper positioning is 3 degrees off vertical in five submissions and your speed is 20% slower than typical. How would you diagnose and fix this for your next batch?”

4. 4.Environment and equipment management

   Technical issues with lighting, connectivity, or device setup cause data loss and project delays; proactive troubleshooting is essential in a remote work context.

   For example: “Before recording, you notice overhead lighting creates hand-obscuring shadows and your upload connection is inconsistent. How would you resolve both issues before submitting?”

5. 5.Extended device wear tolerance

   Comfort and endurance with VR headset and hand-tracking gloves over hours of work determines your productivity and data quality as fatigue sets in.

   For example: “After 90 minutes recording, you notice hand tremor and eye strain with two hours remaining. How would you maintain data quality while managing fatigue?”

A task you may get

Record a simulated household task following a detailed specification sheet covering positioning, speed, angle, lighting, and setup. Identify deviations from spec and describe how you'd adjust.

How to prepare

• Practice performing household tasks with consistent hand positioning and movement speed so you can replicate techniques reliably across multiple takes
• Review videos of professional robotic demonstrations to understand the movement patterns and precision that translates to effective training data
• Assess your home environment for adequate lighting, clear workspace, and stable internet to identify setup improvements before onboarding
