What plumbers do in simulation.
We build the task in simulation. You show how it is done, correct the robot where it goes wrong and set what counts as done right. Robotics teams train their own models on the result.
Demonstrate
Show how you measure, cut, fit and join pipe, including how you support it and check alignment.
Correct robot mistakes
Review robot attempts and flag mistakes such as a misaligned joint, an unsupported run or a fitting not fully seated.
Set the criteria
Define what a sound, leak-free joint and a correct run look like for each task.

Can plumbers make money training AI?
Yes. This role pays $55–75/hr, depending on experience, for part-time project work on a computer. You demonstrate fitting and joining tasks and review robot work in simulation. Scope, hours and payment terms are agreed before each project starts.
Is there remote work for plumbers?
Plumbing isn't remote, but this is. Most contributions happen on a computer. Timing and equipment depend on the project and are set out before it starts.
Will robots replace plumbers?
Not any time soon. Plumbing happens behind walls, under floors and in old buildings, and every job is different. Robots are learning simple steps first, and what they learn is shaped by whoever teaches them.
Do I need robotics or coding experience?
No. Each project gives you the instructions and controls for the task. We need your knowledge of the work.
How do I apply?
Fill in the application. It takes about 5 minutes and asks about your experience, your hours and one mistake a beginner makes in your work that you would spot right away. When a project needs your expertise, we reach out.
