About the role
Own sourcing strategy and supplier execution across the full robot BOM: actuators, motors, gearboxes, sensors, compute modules, PCBAs, harnessing, and mechanical / structural assemblies. Establish sourcing processes, supplier selection, capacity planning, dual-sourcing, and risk mitigation. Metrics, and supplier performance management frameworks appropriate for a rapidly scaling robotics organization.
More about this role
Physical Intelligence is bringing general-purpose AI into the physical world. We are a team 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.
In this role you will own the supply chain and procurement strategy for PI's robot platforms as we scale from prototype to production. You'll build and expand a resilient global supply chain across electromechanical systems including actuators, motors, gearboxes, sensors, compute modules, PCBAs, harnessing, and structural/mechanical assemblies while partnering closely with engineering and manufacturing.
Sitting at the interface between our engineering teams and the industries that supply core technologies, you'll own sourcing strategy and supplier execution across the full robot BOM, lead the transition from in-house builds toward contract manufacturing, negotiate commercial agreements against aggressive cost and quality targets, and establish the sourcing processes, metrics, and supplier performance frameworks for a rapidly scaling robotics organization’s needs.
