Simulation Engineer

Physical AI/Robotics at the Edge | High Ownership & Product Influence

‍

Forget robotic lab projects folding laundry. We're shipping a revolution. We are building the largest industrial robotic workforce on Earth to revitalize American manufacturing in the dirty, dull and dangerous tasks.

We are a small team with deep roots in manufacturing, industrial automation and physical AI, and we are tackling one of the most formidable engineering challenges of our time: deploying and orchestrating fleets of intelligent industrial robots at the edge. To do this, we are unleashing the full power of NVIDIA's most advanced compute, SOTA ML models in harsh environments where 99.99% task completion isn't a goal—it's the starting point.

As a Simulation Engineer, you will be crucial to accelerating our physical AI development by creating realistic, high-fidelity synthetic environments. You will use state-of-the-art simulation platforms to test, validate, and train our perception and planning systems before they ever touch physical hardware. This is a junior-to-mid-level role perfect for an engineer who wants to specialize in the intersection of robotics, applied AI, and virtual world creation.

‍

What You’ll Do

• Design and program complex synthetic environments to mimic diverse industrial settings and operational scenarios.
• Develop and integrate sim-ready 3D assets (robots, objects, sensors, factory layouts) that accurately represent real-world physics and appearance.
• Work primarily with NVIDIA Isaac Sim to generate vast amounts of synthetic data for training robust machine learning models.
• Utilize and maintain physics engines (like PhysX or Newton) to ensure realistic robot-environment interactions.
• Collaborate closely with Robotics and ML engineers to ensure simulation models and environments meet specific testing and training needs.
• Optimize environment performance and rendering to ensure simulation throughput is high.
• Contribute to the overall product strategy by defining the future of our simulation platform.
  
  

Who You Are

• BS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related engineering field (or equivalent experience)
• 1-4 years of professional experience in 3D simulation, game development, or 3D world creation
• Proven hands-on experience using NVIDIA Isaac Sim (highly preferred), MuJoCo, Unity, or Unreal Engine for generating simulations and synthetic data.
• Solid background in 3D asset generation, optimization, and integration of models into simulation/game engines.
• Understanding of physics engines and their application in realistic simulation.
• Strong programming skills in Python or C++
• Detail-oriented and obsessed with ensuring the simulated world accurately reflects the physical world.
• Thrives in fast-moving, high-ownership environments and enjoys solving complex, cross-disciplinary problems.
