NeuroAI foundation models for human cognition
Constellation is creating the AI-human translation layer that ensures humanity evolves alongside our technology. Our mission is to leverage AI towards addressing deep and meaningful problems at the core of the human experience: empowering people towards their goals, augmenting our cognition and emotional wellness, and understanding ourselves and each other. Our path forward is to move away from AI that captures human knowledge towards AI that truly understands what it is to be human. We are generating the richest multimodal dataset ever collected to build a new class of foundation models, and we're seeking talented people to help us make this ambitious future a reality.
We're looking for a curious, highly reliable Data Collection Technician to join our team and help us run high-quality data collection sessions in our labs.
This is a hands-on role. You'll work directly with participants, operate our data collection equipment, keep sessions running smoothly, and solve problems as they come up. You'll be an important part of the day-to-day operation of our labs and will work closely with engineers, researchers, and the broader operations team.
We're looking for someone who takes ownership, moves quickly, pays attention to the details, and is excited to learn. You don't need to have every skill on day one. We're much more interested in someone who is capable, resourceful, and has the potential to grow with us.
Shifts run in blocks throughout the day between 4am–12am, and your assigned schedule may vary week to week based on study needs.
Run data collection sessions with participants and ensure each session is completed accurately and on time.
Maintain accurate participant records and log technical events affecting data collection.
Troubleshoot hardware, software, and environmental issues in real time.
Keep participants comfortable, focused, and on schedule throughout their sessions.
Coordinate with a multidisciplinary team of software engineers, neuroscientists, and AI researchers.
Experience working in a fast-paced environment.
Highly reliable, organized, and detail-oriented.
Strong problem-solving skills and ability to stay calm under pressure.
Comfortable learning new technology and following detailed protocols.
Clear communicator who takes initiative and ownership.
Schedule flexibility required: Must be available to work early morning and late evening shifts, with weekend availability as needed.
Experience with EEG or other physiological data collection equipment.
Experience in research, lab operations, healthcare, hospitality, or customer service.
Experience managing participant recruitment or communications.
Hourly rate commensurate with experience: $25/hour
Eligible for overtime pay: 1.5x your regular rate for hours worked over 8 in a single workday or over 40 in a single workweek.
Eligible for participation in Constellation's 401k retirement plan.
NeuroAI foundation models for human cognition
Constellation focuses on creating NeuroAI foundation models that translate human states into AI understanding. It builds models trained on multimodal data—real-time neural activity, physiological signals, and behavior collected in instrumented settings—to create an AI-human translation layer that can interpret intent, emotion, wellness, and behavior. The goal is to help researchers, developers, and organizations build human-centered AI applications that support cognitive function, emotional wellness, and self-understanding by aligning AI systems with human goals and experiences. What sets Constellation apart is its explicit use of brain and bodily signals, combined with foundation-model technology, to model human state and intent, rather than relying solely on traditional text or image data. The company aims to advance the science of cognition and emotion while delivering practical tools for researchers and developers to build applications around human-centered intelligence.
