Founding Simulation Engineer

Partner directly with customers to understand their robots, products, sensors, actuators, and sites, and turn incomplete specs and messy data into simulation artifacts.

Run hands-on simulation, calibration, and system identification work. Build and calibrate sensor and actuator models, tune contact and dynamics against measurements from the physical system, and use system identification to fit simulation parameters from real data.

Develop metrics and validation methods to understand the sim2real gap, and improve upon them.

Model complex environments and assets in simulation, including articulated and deformable assets where the customer's task needs them.

Build pipelines around simulation for data generation, evaluation, and continual improvement.

Hands-on experience with robots and simulators. If you have had your hands dirty building robots both in real life and in sim, and understood the pain of transferring policies from sim to real, you are the right fit for us.

A record of taking something from idea to a working system on real hardware or real data, not only a prototype.

You have high agency and high integrity, and you are willing to learn, apply, and fail quickly.

You take complete ownership with minimal guidance and do everything possible to make the product work.

It does not matter if you do not have the relevant experience in any of the requirements, as long as you have a strong interest to learn and apply quickly.

Experience with at least one of Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, or Genesis.

Strong Python skills for data analysis, automation, and similar work.

ROS2 and other basic robotics skills.

3D reconstruction techniques, such as Gaussian splatting.
