About Mecka ai
Mecka AI is building the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI. We design and operate global systems for data capture, data labeling, and hardware-enabled workflows used by leading AI labs and robotics companies to train and validate humanoid and embodied AI systems. We work closely with frontier robotics teams to bridge real-world data, simulation, learning-based systems, and deployed hardware.
The role
Run and record varied biology and chemistry protocols and experimental configurations. Produce scientific datasets for AI and robotics through careful bench work, clear explanations and reliable records.
MSc/PhD students and recent graduates with wet-lab and robotics/automation skills are welcome. Target start: around 1 November. Flexible scheduling; extension subject to project needs.
What you'll be doing
- Run protocols: Prepare materials and instruments, follow agreed methods and work safely across a range of laboratory tasks and configurations.
- Record your work: Perform procedures while filmed and explain your actions clearly. Scientific technique and safety come first.
