Physical AI Jobs

What Physical AI Jobs does

Physical AI Jobs is a specialized, web-based job board platform that aggregates open positions in robotics, autonomy, simulation, and embodied AI. Founded in 2026 and operating with a 1-10 person team, the company serves two distinct user groups: job seekers (engineers, researchers, and professionals looking for roles in physical AI) who can search and filter roles for free across categories such as Robotics, Autonomy, Drone Robotics, Simulation, Robot Perception, Robotics Controls, and Embodied AI; and employers (robotics companies, autonomous vehicle firms, humanoid developers, drone companies, and defense-tech firms) who post listings to reach a curated candidate pool. As of the source data, the platform indexes approximately 1,995 open positions globally, with the United States accounting for 1,531 roles and Mountain View (345), Dallas (166), Foster City (117), Austin (77), Pittsburgh (52), and Boston (31) representing the densest city-level hubs.

The core product is a self-serve web platform with category, location, salary ($50k+ to $200k+ thresholds), work-type (Remote/Hybrid/On-site), and job-type (Full-time/Part-time/Contract/Internship) filters, plus RSS feeds and a weekly email newsletter that delivers new roles to subscribers. The technology stack is a standard job board architecture rather than an AI-driven matching system; differentiation rests on domain specialization, curated taxonomies (ROS, SLAM, Motion Planning, Controls, Simulation), and SEO-optimized content assets including a salary guide, job trends page, "What Is Physical AI?" explainer, and a 2026 State of Physical AI Jobs Hiring Report. Distribution is concentrated in organic search, the newsletter, and direct website traffic.

The business model is a two-sided marketplace monetized on the employer side via job listing fees, described as a transaction-fee revenue stream. Employer pricing is not publicly disclosed, job seeker access is free, and there are no disclosed paying-customer counts, contracts, ARR figures, or funding rounds. The company has featured or known employer logos spanning Waymo, Shield AI, Amazon Robotics, NVIDIA, Boston Dynamics, Tesla, Figure AI, Anduril, Agility Robotics, Skydio, Applied Intuition, Zoox, Mujin, Zipline, Apptronik, and ABB Robotics, but it is unclear whether these are paying accounts or organic listings. The company is privately held, US-domiciled (specific jurisdiction undisclosed), and operates globally across at least 12 countries.

Broad incumbents

• Indeed: Indeed is the largest generalist job aggregator globally, scraping and indexing listings from thousands of employers across all industries. It is comparable to Physical AI Jobs as a job-board business model but represents the broad-incumbent category from which Physical AI Jobs is differentiated by deep specialization in the robotics/autonomy vertical.
• LinkedIn: LinkedIn is the world's largest professional network with a job platform covering every industry, including tens of thousands of robotics/autonomy roles. It represents the incumbent that Physical AI Jobs must differentiate against through deeper vertical curation and content - and the most likely source of competitive risk if LinkedIn launches a dedicated Physical AI vertical.
• ZipRecruiter: ZipRecruiter is a large generalist job board using AI-driven matching across all industries. It operates the same self-serve employer-posting business model as Physical AI Jobs, but without the vertical depth in robotics, autonomy, and embodied AI that justifies Physical AI Jobs's premium positioning.
• Glassdoor: Glassdoor combines a generalist job board with company reviews and salary data, with anonymous employee reviews as its primary moat. It is a comparable employer-paid job-listing business to Physical AI Jobs, though the company is now owned by Indeed and serves all industries rather than specializing in Physical AI.

Direct peers

• Honeypot: Honeypot (now part of New Work SE / Xing) is a European tech-vertical job platform that connects developers with technology employers via a curated marketplace. It shares Physical AI Jobs's thesis that technical candidates prefer vertical job boards over generalist ones, though it serves a broader European tech audience rather than robotics specifically.
• AIJobs.com: AIJobs.com is a specialized job board for AI/ML roles that directly competes with Physical AI Jobs in the AI-career vertical. It is the narrowest analogue: same self-serve employer-posting model, same domain-specialization thesis, just in the broader AI category rather than physical/embodied AI.
• Built In: Built In operates a network of city-based tech job boards (Built In NYC, SF, etc.) with a content-community layer - the same vertical-niche job-board-plus-content hybrid model Physical AI Jobs uses for Physical AI careers. Both compete for the same employer budget by offering content-driven candidate engagement rather than generalist listings.
• Wellfound: Wellfound (formerly AngelList Talent) is a venture-backed job marketplace focused on startup and tech roles using a PLG, self-serve employer-posting model. It is the closest analogue to Physical AI Jobs in terms of vertical-niche positioning, two-sided marketplace mechanics, and capital-efficient GTM.
• Y Combinator Work at a Startup: YC's Work at a Startup is a curated job board connecting technical talent with venture-backed startups, with self-serve employer postings and a PLG candidate experience. It is comparable to Physical AI Jobs as a niche, employer-paid job board targeting technical roles in a specific industry segment rather than generalist roles.

Others

• The Ladders: The Ladders is an executive-tier job board focused on $100K+ professional roles, distinct from Physical AI Jobs's robotics specialization but illustrative of how job boards can carve out premium positioning by narrowing audience and category. Both platforms demonstrate that specialists can command pricing power versus generalist incumbents.
