The role is described as paying up to $45 per hour (potentially $100,000 annually), requiring a 7‑hour workday, the ability to lift 30 lb, and the use of a specialized motion suit and VR headset. The speaker notes possible VR‑induced sickness as a drawback and mentions that production is expected by 2026.

Elon Musk is going to— he's going to make this Tesla robot, Optimus. Yeah, so you can get a job and be what he calls a data collector operator. It's going to pay up to $45 an hour, maybe even up to $100 grand a year. I've heard this, and you have to work I looked it up, 7 hours a day. You have to be able to carry 30 pounds. You have to wear some special motion suit and a VR headset. The only drawback is you get VR sickness or have some related symptoms to wear this VR thing all day. Yep. So that's kind of crazy, and he expects it to go into production in 2026.
