Sunday Robotics hiring model trainers
Sunday Robotics, fresh off a $165M Series B, is hiring remote AI model trainers at up to $60/hour—positions that require little formal background and focus on teleoperation and annotation work. The openings highlight how data‑generation roles are becoming accessible entry points into embodied AI teams. (x.com)
Sunday’s careers page and multiple job-aggregator listings show the role posted under the title “Memory Developer,” described as a remote, contract position on the company site and on third‑party boards. (sunday.ai) (remoterocketship.com) Job board snapshots specifically flag the opening as a contractor role that requires confidentiality agreements (NDA) and flexible, part‑time scheduling rather than a full‑time engineering hire. (indeed.com) Sunday’s public Series B announcement names Coatue as the lead investor and notes Thomas Laffont will join the company’s board as part of that financing. (sunday.ai) (techcrunch.com) The company says the new capital is funding an operational scale‑up—Engineering hiring has grown roughly 3x, Research 4x, and Data Operations 5x as they move from demos to a beta rollout later in 2026. (sunday.ai) Sunday describes its Memo household robot development as driven by a “data flywheel” that includes a Skill Capture Glove™ for recording human motions to bootstrap manipulation skills for training and teleoperation workflows.
