About the role

- Design remote teleoperation interfaces: Develop comfortable and precise interfaces for controlling robots with many degrees of freedom - Optimize for low-latency network performance: Engineer teleoperation interfaces that can continue functioning even in weak internet areas

What they're looking for

  • - Experience with robot teleoperation systems, VR/AR platforms, or low-latency 3D engines
  • - Camera system expertise (synchronization, capture pipelines, codecs, GPU offload)
  • - Streaming/video conferencing stack experience (WebRTC, real-time transport optimizations)
  • - Background in robotics or autonomous systems (implementation, not research)
  • - Familiarity with distributed systems that process real-time data flows
  • Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records
More about this role

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.

Deploying robots into the real world takes more than a capable model - it takes designing a physical system that's fast, safe, and reliable enough to run unattended on a customer's floor, backed by software you can observe, debug, and trust if something goes wrong.

As a Robotics Software Engineer, you'll build that system. You'll integrate state-of-the-art models with robots that work on-site - building system safeguards, the teleoperation interfaces operators rely on, and the latency optimizations that make remote control feel instant. You'll work with researchers, platform engineers, and robot operators to make the whole stack dependable enough that customers bet their operations on it.

The Deployments team is responsible for solving real world problems with our models and robots. We tackle the full problem space: integrating with customer workflows, training models to solve their dexterous tasks,...
