Overview Physical Superintelligence is a startup with roots at Google, NVIDIA, Harvard, Meta, MIT, Oxford, Johns Hopkins, Cambridge, and the Perimeter Institute building AI systems to discover new physics at scale. We are seeking engineers to build platform infrastructure at the intersection of computational science, AI systems, and software engineering.

Our mission is to discover and commercialize transformative physics breakthroughs at scale with artificial superintelligence, safely, verifiably, and for broad public benefit. The last century's golden age of physics gave us transistors, lasers, and nuclear energy. We believe artificial superintelligence will unlock the next one.

We're creating the infrastructure to industrialize scientific discovery and usher in this new era. We have one product: new physics, at scale. Use this application if you are an engineer, no open engineering role fits your profile, and you want to be considered anyway.

We hire excellent engineers when we find them, whether or not a matching role is open. Tell us how your background and ambitions intersect with our mission, and where you would have the most impact. Â Role and Responsibilities Our platform spans distributed systems, data infrastructure, agent systems and evaluation, HPC and scientific computing, developer platforms, product engineering, cloud infrastructure, and security.

This application is for engineers who are strong across most of that list, or unusually deep in something important we did not list. The bar here is higher than any single posting. The standard is the same as every engineering role here: full ownership from spec to ship to on-call, and systems other people build on.
