Modeling and Simulation Engineer

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
