Design and develop performant mathematical models of robots, manipulators, and environments; integrate simulation into CI/CD; balance fidelity and compute; collaborate with simulation, motion planning, controls, field ops and intelligence teams.
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.
QualificationsMust-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
