Location: 55 York Street, Suite 1100, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 1R7

Work Model: In Office 

Compensation: $22/hr

Vacancy Status: This is a temporary fulltime replacement position within the Engineering department

Job Summary: 

Reporting to Engineering, the object tester helps us improve and train our AI-based threat detection systems by replicating real-life scenarios in our lab. To train our systems effectively, we need to do thousands of walkthroughs using a variety of people and objects. These objects include benign items such as laptops, phones, and keys, as well as imitation weapons such as guns and knives. 

Responsibilities:

• Perform repeated walkthroughs while carrying a range of test items, primarily through a series of pillars around 20’/6m in height. The tester must maintain a consistent walking speed throughout.
• Accurately operate from a checklist, making sure every walkthrough is consistent with its requirements.
• Maintain and organize the objects used for testing.
• Contribute feedback to improve testing procedures. 

Requirements:

• Able to walk continuously and consistently for long periods of time while carrying objects that weigh up to 8lbs/3.5kg. We provide breaks and there are chairs to rest, but this role requires a lot of walking.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to follow instructions precisely.

Xtract One provides a safe and friendly environment for people to work in. Appropriate safety measures are followed according to federal, provincial and local guidelines.
