Robot Dog Walker
About the Role
If you scanned a QR code off a flier carried by our robot dog Nemo while he was roaming Stanford, you're in the right place.
This position may or may not be real.
What is real: we're building something different at NODE, and we're looking for people who think walking a robot dog around campus to hand out fliers is a reasonable use of technology. If that's you, we should talk.
About NODE
NODE is a nonprofit foundation dedicated to transforming how digital art is experienced. NODE is both an idea and a place – built with artists, by artists, and for artists.
NODE is the antidote to sterile galleries and stagnant institutions. NODE is part exhibition space, part learning lab, part cultural engine—designed to give digital art a home that matches its energy and potential. It challenges how we think about art, who gets to create it, and how we engage with it. It celebrates code as culture, and believes the future of art is collaborative, alive, and always evolving.
From Palo Alto to every connected device worldwide, NODE brings together a network of creators who understand that art has the power to bring us closer. We host experiences that evolve and deepen as more people engage. We create spaces – both physical and digital – that invite interaction, experimentation, and dialogue. We partner directly with artists to protect and preserve their code and creative legacy. We collaborate with universities and forward-looking institutions to nurture and inspire the next generation of digital creators. Because it takes a network to make art work.
