About the job
About Hub
Hub (Y Combinator 2026) collects real-world human and robot data to train robots, and works with some of the most recognised robotics and AI labs in the United States. Today Hub specialises in egocentric data collected at a scale and speed no lab could reach on its own: every contributor is identity-verified (KYC) and every contribution goes through several layers of quality control. Scalable QA of egocentric data, run by our Refinery team, remains a core company priority.
Hub Labs, headquartered in Toulouse, is where Hub turns that data into working robot behaviour. Within Hub Labs, the Brain team, led by Guillaume, works on robot learning across humanoids and other types of embodied machines.
The role
You build the scientific program of Hub Labs with Guillaume. You start from what actually goes wrong when robots run, turn it into falsifiable questions and answer them with rigorous experiments. This role keeps real research capacity: time to think, design studies and publish, alongside hands-on work on physical robots.
Location: San Francisco, USA OR Toulouse, France. In-office and hands-on with physical robots; this is not a remote role.
