Netholabs is hiring a human data collection lead to own the quality and integrity of its multimodal recordings, running the rigs now and building out the participant pipeline as collection scales.

About the role

Netholabs is a neuroscience and AI research company building biological foundation models grounded in large-scale neurobehavioral data. It designs custom hardware, high-density neural recording systems and tracking environments to capture petascale datasets, working towards whole brain emulation. The company has offices in London and San Francisco and a research site at the University of Sussex in Brighton.

About the role

This role owns the quality and integrity of everything Netholabs records. The company captures people performing real-world tasks, from physical manipulation to computer use, across precisely synchronized modalities: motion tracking, eye tracking, multi-camera video and neural signals such as EEG.

It is hands-on and technical for now. Once the data is proven and collection volume grows, the role expands into building and managing the participant pipeline.

Now: rigs, sessions and data quality

  • Set up, calibrate and operate multimodal recording rigs across motion tracking, eye tracking, camera arrays and neural and physiological sensors.
  • Own temporal synchronization and spatial calibration across every device.
  • Run recording sessions spanning manipulation tasks and computer use, with neural data recorded throughout.
  • Apply neuroimaging best practice: sensor placement, signal and impedance checks, artefact and noise reduction.
  • Verify each session is complete, correctly logged and meets quality standards before it reaches the research team.
  • Obtain informed consent and handle participant data under UK GDPR, keeping versioned SOPs as protocols evolve.

As collection scales

  • Build and manage the participant panel, recruitment, screening and scheduling, and drive retention across repeat sessions.
  • Help stand up new collection sites internationally, keeping protocols, consent and data handling consistent.

What they are looking for

  • A background in neuroscience or a related field, with hands-on experience collecting neurophysiological data and keeping it clean.
  • Comfort setting up, calibrating and troubleshooting recording hardware.
  • Exceptional organization and attention to detail, and strong interpersonal skills with participants.
  • Right to work in the UK, and willingness to travel internationally on occasion.
