Responsibilities
- Develop and run physics-based simulation environments for end-to-end testing of robots and Physical AI products.
- Build digital twins of AutoStore hardware and compare simulation outputs with laboratory and field data to improve fidelity.
- Set up software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop test benches and integrate simulation cases into regression and CI pipelines.
- Develop scenario-generation and stress-testing methods to identify unknown failure modes and edge cases.
- Build tools and automated workflows for what-if analyses and parameter sweeps.
- Generate synthetic data and simulation environments for training and evaluating perception and AI models.
- Collaborate across engineering disciplines to select model fidelity and communicate results and uncertainty.
Requirements
- At least 3 years of experience applying simulation in robotics, hardware engineering, or product development.
- Hands-on experience with physics-based robotics simulators such as NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Gazebo, MuJoCo, PyBullet, or Webots.
- Strong Python programming skills; C++ experience is a plus.
- Experience automating simulation workflows and analyzing large result sets.
- Understanding of rigid-body dynamics, kinematics, sensors, and actuators.
- Experience with automated testing, including software-in-the-loop, hardware-in-the-loop, or simulation in CI/CD.
- Bachelor’s degree or higher in Mechanical, Electrical, or Robotics Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
- Preferred experience with photorealistic rendering, synthetic data generation, reinforcement learning environments, system identification, parameter estimation, sensitivity analysis, uncertainty quantification, traditional FEA, 3D CAD, and scaling simulations across GPUs, clusters, or cloud.
- Background in robotics, logistics automation, or other electromechanical systems is preferred.
Benefits
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans.
- Health Savings Account with a company contribution.
- Generous paid time off, including 12 holidays, paid exercise time, paid volunteer time, and paid parental leave for all new parents.
- 401(k) plan with employer match and discretionary profit-sharing contribution.
- Educational assistance and professional development programs, including mentorship and coaching with external industry leaders.
- Group life insurance, voluntary additional life insurance, disability insurance, and employee assistance programs.
