Position Overview: Wayfinders Senior Managing Consultant – Physical AI Senior Managing Consultants own complex Physical AI engagements end-to-end — from initial framing through sustained value realization — leading multi-disciplinary teams across perception, modeling, and execution disciplines. Physical AI describes systems that perceive the physical world (sensors, cameras, connectivity), reason about it (AI/ML, simulation, digital twins), and act on it (robotics, automation) — think computer vision‑guided quality inspection, predictive maintenance from sensor telemetry, or a digital twin that simulates a warehouse before automation goes live.
