Job Description

Physical Intelligence is bringing general-purpose AI into the physical world. We are a group of engineers, scientists, roboticists, and company builders developing learning algorithms to create a model that will control any robot to do any task.

The Team

The Set Team plans, builds, and maintains these environments so research can run on real-world tasks. "Sets" are the physical rooms and scenes where our robots collect data: kitchens, living rooms, evaluation stations, and more. As Set Team Coordinator, you'll plan and deliver every set remodel from requirements to ready, working with researchers, environment designers + our build, move, and prop teams.

In This Role You Will

  • Plan Builds: Translate research requirements into a weekly build plan, and set the priority order when remodels compete for the crew.

  • Source & Purchase: Decide which props and environment items (and substitutes) meet each requirement, then source and purchase them.

  • Coordinate the Work: Direct contractor build, move, and set work day to day, and coordinate across the environment, move, and prop teams.

  • Verify & Sign Off: Check that each set is complete and meets spec, and sign off before it's handed off for data collection.

  • Get Hands-On: Step in on staging and ad hoc builds when needed.

What We Hope You'll Bring

  • 2+ years in set building, production design, event or retail installs, or facilities.

  • Experience planning work across several teams on tight timelines.

  • Purchasing experience and strong attention to detail.

  • Sound judgment when requirements change week to week.

  • Comfort on your feet and hands-on when needed.

Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
