Ota AIRoA (AI Robot Association)
Position Overview


As a General Affairs Specialist at the AI Robot Association (AIRoA), you will be responsible for a wide range of back-office operations that support the overall management of the association.

Your work will include supporting the operation of board meetings and various internal meetings (preparing materials, taking minutes, scheduling), acting as the secretariat for events, managing contracts and other official documents, overseeing office supplies and assets, maintaining and improving the office environment, and handling payments and budget-related tasks.

As the "behind-the-scenes" backbone of projects that bring AI-powered robot foundation models and data ecosystems to the world, you will collaborate with many members across the organization to keep operations running smoothly.

【業務内容】

AIロボット協会(AIRoA)の総務担当として、協会運営全般を支えるバックオフィス業務を幅広くお任せします。具体的には、理事会・各種会議の運営サポート(資料作成・議事録・日程調整)、イベント開催時の事務局対応、契約書・各種文書の管理、備品・資産管理、オフィス環境の整備、支払・予算管理など様々な業務を行います。AI×ロボット基盤モデルとデータエコシステムを世界に発信するプロジェクトの"舞台裏"を支える総務として、数多くのメンバーと連携しながら業務を推進していただきます。

【What Makes the "General Affairs Specialist" Role at AIRoA Unique】


AIRoA is an organization that aims to build a large-scale robot data ecosystem and robot-focused foundation models through the fusion of AI and robotics technologies, accelerating the realization and social implementation of general-purpose robots.

We are working to create a future in which robots play an active role in industries facing significant social challenges in Japan, and it is General Affairs that builds the stable "operational infrastructure" to support these activities.

Working right alongside cutting-edge R&D and industry collaborations, you will directly experience how the rules and operations you design help move large, high-impact projects forward.

【AIRoAの「総務担当」の醍醐味】

AIRoAは、AIとロボット技術の融合を通じて、大規模なロボットデータエコシステムとロボット向け基盤モデルを構築し、汎用ロボットの実現と社会実装の加速を目指す組織です。日本の社会課題が大きい産業でロボットが活躍する未来づくりに取り組んでおり、その活動を安定して運用する"仕組み"をつくるのが総務の役割です。最先端の研究開発や産業連携が進む現場のすぐそばで、「自分の整えたルールとオペレーションが、大きなプロジェクトを前に進めている」という実感が得られます。

【The Appeal of Taking On This Challenge at AIRoA, Just as We Are Getting Started】

Established in December 2024 and beginning full-scale activities in FY2025, AIRoA is very much in its launch phase.

Major corporations and startups participate as members, and together with universities and research institutions, we are forming a rare and unprecedented ecosystem.

In this environment, you will have the opportunity to think from scratch about "what kind of operational rules, meeting design, and information management are appropriate for this new type of association," and to build the mechanisms for meeting governance, document management, policies and rules, and office operations.

【スタートを切ったばかりのAIRoAで挑戦する魅力】

AIRoAは2024年12月に設立され、2025年度から本格的に活動を開始した、まさに立ち上げフェーズの組織です。大手企業やスタートアップなどが会員として名を連ね、大学・研究機関も含めた前例の少ないエコシステムを形成しています。「どのような運営ルール・会議設計・情報管理が、この新しい協会にふさわしいか」をゼロベースで考え、会議体や文書管理、規程・ルール、オフィス運営などの仕組みをつくっていける魅力があります。

【Other】

While remote work is possible, this role is primarily expected to be office-based.

Most of our engineers and researchers also work on-site, conducting research and development directly in front of the robots.

【その他】

リモートワーク可ではありますが、原則として出社での勤務を想定しています。

エンジニアや研究者も多くは出社し、ロボットを前に研究開発に取り組んでいます。

【About AIRoA】


AIRoA was established in December 2024 with two core objectives: "to revolutionize the technology of robot development through the fusion of robots and AI" and "to promote the use of robots in society." While AI is rapidly advancing worldwide, the shortage of data in robot development has become a critical issue.


To address this challenge, we are running a national flagship project funded by NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization), with an investment of over JPY 20 billion.

【AIRoAの概要】

「ロボットとAIの融合によってロボット開発の技術を革新すること」「社会におけるロボットの活用を推進すること」AIRoAは2024年12月に設立された組織であり、この2つの目的を掲げています。今、世界中でAIが急速に発展する一方、ロボット開発ではデータ不足が深刻です。私たちはNEDO(国立研究開発法人 新エネルギー・産業技術総合開発機構)から200億円を超える出資による国家プロジェクトを進行しています。

Recruitment Background


As AIRoA's multiple R&D projects and joint initiatives with member companies move into full swing, the number of governance and coordination bodies—such as board meetings, committees, and working groups—as well as external collaborations is steadily increasing, and the scope of work handled by General Affairs is expanding accordingly.


With continued project growth and stronger governance in mind, we have decided to create a new General Affairs Specialist position.

In this role, you will take professional ownership of general affairs operations and lead the development and standardization of AIRoA's operational infrastructure.

募集背景

AIRoAでは複数の研究開発プロジェクトや会員企業との共同取り組みが本格化しています。それに伴い、理事会・委員会・ワーキンググループなどの会議体や社外連携も増加しており、総務が担う業務も増えております。今後の継続的なプロジェクト拡大とガバナンス強化を見据え、総務業務を専門的に担い、運営基盤の整備・標準化をリードしていただける総務担当を新たにお迎えすることになりました。

Future Mission


While steadily running day-to-day general affairs operations — including meeting management, document control, contracts, and office/facility management — you will also be expected to review and standardize existing workflows.


In the mid to long term, you will be involved in more upstream "operations design": developing policies and rules that reflect collaboration with member companies, universities, and research institutions, and building frameworks for risk management and compliance.


Ultimately, your mission as a General Affairs Specialist will be to enhance the overall "operational quality" of the association that supports the very forefront of AI and robotics.

将来的なミッション

会議体運営・文書管理・契約・備品/オフィス管理などの総務オペレーションを安定的に回しつつ、既存フローの見直し・標準化に取り組んでいただきます。中長期的には、会員企業・大学・研究機関との連携を踏まえた規程・ルール類の整備、リスクマネジメントやコンプライアンスの仕組みづくりなど、より上流の"運営デザイン"にも関わっていただく想定です。AI×ロボットの最前線を支える協会の「運営品質」を高めることが、総務担当に期待される将来的なミッションです。

Requirements


Required Qualifications:
3+ years of experience in general affairs or corporate administration (in-house at a business company, startup, etc.)
Hands-on experience in managing corporate governance bodies (meetings), document control, and contract/approval (stamping) workflows
Basic knowledge of business law and compliance
