Salary Competitive

Company

Doublepoint makes gesture recognition software for wearables. Our algorithms detect subtle hand gestures that have not previously been possible. To make it work flawlessly for everyone, the algorithms require large scale training and testing on a lot of people, all the time.


Role and Motivation

Doublepoint is looking for people to join our User Research team this fall in the Helsinki and Espoo area. The team’s goal is to gather training and testing data for our machine learning models and proprietary hardware. As a User Research Instructor, you will be an important part of the product development. You will not only instruct end users in data collection, but also coordinate logistics and set up the physical spaces required. Additionally, you will play a crucial role in continuously improving the user research process by testing the software and hardware.

We are looking for sunny, flexible and outgoing people to join our team, who are not afraid to face customers. You don't freeze in the middle of a rush, you are reliable, and take on any task on your own initiative. This role doesn’t require training in the field or previous work experience, because we train and familiarize our employees ourselves, but we value if you have had some previous experience working with different people.

Our company offers a competitive salary, flexible work schedule, and the opportunity to challenge and develop yourself in a great and close-knit team. We are looking for a social, brave and cheerful person who is not afraid to face customers and is self-motivated. We expect the applicant to be fluent in Finnish or English.

You don't necessarily need previous experience, a brisk and proactive attitude is the key!

This data scaling team’s ultimate goal is to deliver a large quantity of high quality data to enhance the performance of our cutting edge gesture detection algorithms.
