Role Description

We are looking to recruit an exceptional Modeling & Simulation Engineer to work on our robot models, environment models, and simulation pipeline.

In this role you will:

• Define simulation requirements

• Develop performant, cutting-edge mathematical models of robots, manipulators and the scenes in which they operate

• Strike the perfect balance between fidelity and computational complexity

• Integrate simulation-based assessment into CI/CD pipelines in a way that scales

• Make simulation an indispensable part of our entire design, development and deployment process

You will be working closely with the Simulation, Motion Planning & Controls, Field Operations and Intelligence teams.

Qualifications

Must-have:

• MS or PhD in engineering, mathematics, computer science or a related discipline

• Experience in mathematical modeling of complex dynamic systems

• Ability to take ownership of a large, strategically important development project and drive its success

• Willingness to step in and support other teams when we have tight deadlines and problems to solve

Nice-to-have:

• Familiarity with environments for robotic simulation including Isaac Sim

• Experience in some combination of: applied optimization

• modeling of mechanical contact

• creation of detailed 3D world models

• GPU acceleration of physics simulations

• deployment of numerically-intensive simulations to cloud compute platforms

• integration of simulation tests into CI/CD pipelines

• creation of simulation test cases from real-world data

• simulation for HiL testing
