Instruction Writing Lead

Who we are

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.

The team

Within Ops, there are three functions: Prototyping, Process Engineering, and Production Ops. This role will sit in Prototyping — the starting point of the pipeline, where research intent gets translated into executable plans before anything moves downstream.

In this role you will:

-Own validation of instructions before release to Production Ops, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and execution readiness

-Translate prototyping outputs into structured, production-ready instructions with consistent logic and formatting

-Determine the best method for instruction delivery to end users

-Work with international team to ensure delivery is appropriate for their team – alternative language instructions, videos, etc.

-Define and maintain instruction templates in partnership with Process Engineering

-Manage and support the onsite instruction-writing team, including review workflows and prioritization

-Establish scalable documentation processes across data collection, evaluation, scorecard, and QA instruction sets

-Partner with Prototyping to improve handoff quality and reduce downstream rework

-Represent instruction-writing requirements in tooling, template design, and release standards

-Define and track instruction quality and coverage metrics as output scales

-Support international rollout by ensuring instructions are localization-ready, regionally adaptable, and usable across distributed Production Ops teams

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