Role Overview
The Learning & Development Lead owns training and readiness for Physical Intelligence's robot operator workforce.
This person is responsible for designing and running the systems that take a new operator from candidate work trial through their first 30–60 days, with the goal of getting people productive quickly while maintaining a high quality bar.
They also own ongoing training as the work changes. When researchers introduce new robot workflows, tasks, tools, or operating procedures, the Learning & Development Lead translates those changes into training that can be rolled out quickly and consistently across the operation.
This is a highly operational training role. We are looking for someone who has built or owned training programs for hourly or frontline employees and knows how to turn complex work into a simple, repeatable learning process.
Responsibilities
Operator Trials & Readiness
- Own the operator work-trial program and ensure candidates are evaluated consistently.
- Maintain clear trial standards, evaluator guidance, and scoring criteria.
- Partner with recruiting and operations to continuously improve what the trial predicts about future operator success.
New-Hire Onboarding
- Build and run onboarding from day one through the first 30–60 days.
- Define what an operator should know and be able to do at each stage of ramp.
- Create training plans, checklists, certification steps, and readiness milestones.
- Identify struggling operators early and create clear paths for remediation.
- Continuously improve time-to-productivity for new hires.
New Workflow Training
- Partner with researchers and operations teams when new robot tasks, systems, or processes are introduced.
- Learn new workflows quickly and translate them into clear training materials and operating instructions.
- Design the rollout plan needed to train a large operator population quickly.
- Track who has been trained and verify that the training actually resulted in correct execution.
- Maintain consistency as training expands across shifts, teams, and locations.
Training Operations
- Maintain a clear training calendar and ensure training happens when required.
- Coordinate trainers, operators, shift leads, and researchers.
- Keep training materials current as workflows change.
- Build repeatable processes so training does not depend on tribal knowledge.
- Track training completion, readiness, and performance metrics.
Continuous Improvement
- Use operator performance data and feedback to identify gaps in training.
- Work with operations leaders to understand recurring quality or productivity issues.
- Determine whether problems are caused by training, instructions, process, tooling, or something else.
- Continuously simplify and improve how operators learn.
What We're Looking For
- Experience owning training, onboarding, or workforce development programs for hourly or frontline employees.
- Demonstrated ability to get new employees productive quickly.
- Experience building structured ramp programs with clear milestones and standards.
- Strong operational organization and follow-through.
- Able to turn ambiguous or technical workflows into simple, teachable processes.
- Comfortable managing trainers, who are responsible for training large groups of people on new procedures under tight timelines.
- Strong written and verbal communication.
- Able to work effectively with both highly technical stakeholders, trainers, and frontline operators.
- Comfortable in an environment where processes and requirements change frequently.
- Uses data and observation to improve training rather than relying only on subjective feedback.
Experience in robotics is not required.
Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Learning And Development Jobs
Verify your role qualifies as specialty occupation
Use O*NET to confirm that Learning And Development roles in your target sector require a bachelor's degree in instructional design, education, or a related field. Consular officers assess specialty occupation status at your interview, so document the degree requirement before applying.
Target employers with active DOL LCA filings
Search Migrate Mate to identify employers who have filed Labor Condition Applications for Learning And Development roles. LCA history shows which companies have already navigated H-1B1 Singapore sponsorship and are likely to do it again for the right candidate.
Request the LCA before your visa appointment
Your employer must file and receive a certified LCA from DOL before you can apply at the consulate. Confirm the LCA is certified and matches your exact job title, worksite location, and start date, since mismatches are a common reason consular officers request additional documentation.
Prepare evidence linking your degree to your L&D role
Singaporean L&D professionals with degrees in psychology, communications, or business sometimes face specialty occupation scrutiny. Bring transcripts, a detailed job description from your employer, and any professional certifications like CIPD or ATD to demonstrate the direct connection between your credentials and the role.
Plan your renewal timeline before your status expires
H-1B1 Singapore status is granted in one-year increments and does not have a maximum stay limit, but you must renew before each period ends. Build renewal into your employment agreement and confirm your employer will file the next LCA at least 60 days before your current status expires.
Clarify USCIS I-94 admission period with your employer's HR team
Many HR teams confuse your visa stamp validity with your authorized period of stay. Your I-94, not the visa stamp, controls when your status expires. Ensure whoever manages your sponsorship understands the distinction so they don't miss a renewal filing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Learning And Development roles qualify for the H-1B1 Singapore visa?
Yes, Learning And Development roles qualify when the position requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific related field such as instructional design, organizational development, educational psychology, or human resources. Generalist training coordinator roles that accept any degree may face greater scrutiny at the consulate, so your job offer should specify the required discipline.
How does the H-1B1 Singapore visa compare to H-1B for L&D professionals?
The H-1B1 Singapore visa is processed directly at the U.S. consulate in Singapore with no lottery and no USCIS petition required, which means you can secure status in weeks rather than waiting months for a random selection result. The tradeoff is that H-1B visa1 status is granted in one-year increments rather than three, so L&D professionals need to plan renewals more actively than H-1B holders.
Where can I find employers who sponsor H-1B1 Singapore visas for L&D jobs?
Migrate Mate filters job listings by verified H-1B1 Singapore sponsorship history using DOL Labor Condition Application data, so you can see which employers have sponsored roles like Learning And Development previously. This is more reliable than asking employers directly, since many HR teams are unfamiliar with the H-1B1 Singapore category until they have a specific candidate to sponsor.
Can I bring my spouse and children to the U.S. on an H-1B1 Singapore visa?
Dependents of H-1B1 Singapore visa holders can accompany you on H-4 dependent visas, but H-4 holders are not eligible for work authorization the way H-4 EAD permits work for some H-1B spouses. Your family can live in the U.S. with you, but your spouse would need an independent work visa if they want to be employed.
What happens to my H-1B1 Singapore status if I change employers or roles?
Changing employers requires your new employer to file a new LCA with DOL and obtain certification before you begin work with them. Unlike H-1B portability under AC21, H-1B1 Singapore visa holders cannot port to a new employer based on a pending petition, so you must wait for the new LCA to be certified and receive a new visa stamp before starting.
