About the role

Senior Robotics Simulation Expert to design, implement, and optimize simulation architectures and pipelines for robotic systems, including digital twins, sim-to-real/real-to-sim, cloud-based infrastructure, and AI integration within autonomous environments.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to build and refine robust pipelines for transferring learned behaviors, sensor models, and physics parameters between simulation and real-world robotic systems, minimizing the reality gap through domain randomization and adaptation techniques.
  • Architect and deploy scalable simulation infrastructure on cloud platforms, ensuring seamless parallel simulation runs, distributed training environments, and on-demand access optimized for robotic use cases with low latency and high performance.
  • Provide technical leadership in integrating AI/ML frameworks into simulation environments, enabling reinforcement learning, synthetic data generation, autonomous behavior training, and intelligent environment modeling.
  • Design and implement SIL testing frameworks to validate robotic software stacks — including perception, planning, and control modules — within simulated environments.
  • Develop and maintain HIL testing setups that interface real hardware components with simulated environments, ensuring real-time performance validation, system integrity, and hardware-software compatibility verification.
  • Stay updated with the latest trends and technologies in robotics simulation frameworks, automation, AI/ML integration, and sim-to-real methodologies, offering insights and recommendations to continuously enhance simulation capabilities.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related field
