Type: Fixed-term or Full-time Location: London · On-site · May require occasional travel The Role We are building integrated human and non-human motion-capture and neurophysiological recording systems for both controlled lab studies and naturalistic, in-the-wild data collection. We are looking for an experienced researcher engineer that is hands-on to own the London capture site across both lab and field settings: set up and run the hardware, import and enforce best-practice capture protocols, and ensure every session executes reliably and reproducibly. This is an operational role: you'll take defined capture standards and make them run at scale, not design the science. Responsibilities Experimental Operations Implement and maintain streamlined, minimal capture protocols Import and operationalize best-practice standards for human mocap Prepare and run recording sessions Maintain clear SOPs and documentation Ensure sessions are reproducible and well logged Hardware & Systems Set up and maintain motion-capture and neurophysiological recording systems Integrate all devices on a shared clock (video, kinematics, physiological streams) Troubleshoot signal, sync, and capture-quality issues Assemble and maintain multi-camera / multi-sensor rigs Manage equipment inventory, calibration, and camera setup Infrastructure Oversee lab layout and capture-space setup Maintain structured data storage, formats, and backups Coordinate procurement and supplier communication Requirements Core (essential) Experience with human motion capture (marker-based, markerless/computer-vision, or IMU-suit systems) Multi-camera calibration and time synchronization Strong hardware troubleshooting ability Comfortable with embedded systems Basic Python scripting Organized and systematic; disciplined about documentation and reproducibility Valued Hand / finger kinematics capture and video pipelines Structured data formats (e.g. HDF5) and reproducible data logging Experience with physiological recording systems (EEG or similar), or willingness to cross-train Find Jobs in United Kingdom on Arbeitnow
