Physical Intelligence is bringing general-purpose AI into the physical world. We are a group of engineers, scientists, roboticists, and company builders developing foundation models and learning algorithms to power the robots of today and the physically-actuated devices of the future.

As a Fullstack Software Engineer, you will build internal products that help Pi's research and operations teams move faster. You will work closely with operators, roboticists, researchers, and other engineers to turn physical workflows into reliable software.

The Team

Fullstack builds the internal software the rest of Pi runs on. Our users span the path from research intent to physical execution: researchers designing experiments and requesting data, Research Ops working across task design, environments, prototyping, and instructions, and Production Ops running collection, evals, and deployments across our lab, warehouse, and real-world sites.

In This Role You Will

  • Own the human-robot interfaces: The software people use to run, monitor, and debug robots, from setup and calibration through live operation and review. Someone lives in this for an entire shift, and small friction compounds fast.
  • Design for the whole shift, not just the episode: Time on a robot is a fraction of the day. The rest is preparation, troubleshooting, handoffs, and feedback, spread today across several tools and several people. The goal is not to expose every tool, but to build one surface that tells someone what deserves their attention now and notices when they're stuck.
  • Design for safety: Make state
