From the posting

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.

In this role you will help scale and optimize our training systems and core model code. You’ll own critical infrastructure for large-scale training, from managing GPU/TPU compute and job orchestration to building reusable and efficient JAX training pipelines. You’ll work closely with researchers and model engineers to translate ideas into experiments—and those experiments into production training runs.

This is a hands-on, high-leverage role at the intersection of ML, software engineering, and scalable infrastructure.

The Team

The ML Infrastructure team supports and accelerates PI’s core modeling efforts by building the systems that make large-scale training reliable, reproducible, and fast. The team works closely with research, data, and platform engineers to ensure models can scale from prototype to production-grade training runs.

In This Role You Will

- Own training/inference infrastructure: Design, implement, and maintain systems for large-scale model training, including scheduling, job management, checkpointing, and metrics/logging.

- Scale distributed training: Work with researchers to scale JAX-based training across TPU and GPU clusters with minimal friction. …
