Distributed SystemsResearch
About the role
- 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.
Responsibilities
- 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.
- engineers work with agentic coding tools daily, write specs that are legible to humans and agents alike, and lead with leverage.
Requirements
- A track record of shipping substantive work in your field, whether that is physics research, AI systems, engineering platforms, customer-facing products, or commercial deals.
- Comfort working at the intersection of physics, AI, and software engineering, even if your primary expertise is in one of these areas.
- If you have a portfolio, prior publications, open-source contributions, or shipped systems we can look at, include them.
Nice to have
- Background in one of our open job areas (AI Research, Physics Research, Distributed Systems, Infrastructure, Security, or Forward Deployed Engineering).
- Publications, open-source contributions, or shipped systems that the community has adopted.
- Prior experience at a fast-growing deep-tech, AI, or research-focused organization.
- Domain expertise in data centers, energy, fusion, batteries, hydrogen, carbon capture, or comparable physics-bearing verticals.
- This role is based in Boston.
- We evaluate on technical breadth, systems thinking, scientific curiosity, and shipping velocity.
Compensation
- Location and Compensation
Benefits
- We offer competitive compensation including salary, benefits, and meaningful early-stage equity.
