By introducing Haraway’s cyborg metaphor into the field of digitally mediated labour, we aim to define the cyborg as the embodied figure of hybrid working in digital capitalism and thus questioning the underlying conceptual understandings of labour. Following on from critically reviewing hybrid work as a result of advancing processes of «cyborganization» of digital working arrangements from a feminist perspective, the article makes an important theoretical contribution to the actual debate on hybrid labour. Since in today’s digital capitalism established work patterns and traditional dichotomies have long since merged, our households and living spaces have become factories, and in our leisure time and in social relationships we create economic value. The cyborg, as a figure of hybridity and boundary blurring, points out the structural ambivalences of digitally mediated hybrid labour arrangements
