Agility's humanoid robots are deployed today in manufacturing, distribution, and logistics. Proven automation for industrial environments. Backed by SoftBank VF.
About the role
Agility Robotics is building the world's most capable humanoid robots, and we're looking for a senior engineer to help build the simulation software at the foundation of it. You'll be one of the first engineers on a new Simulation team, working alongside the team's leader to shape its technical direction, architecture, and infrastructure from the ground up. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 2+ years of professional software engineering experience in robotics, simulation or an adjacent industry or a PhD in robotics or computer science
- Strong proficiency in modern C++ and Python
- Experience with at least one major robotics physics simulator (MuJoCo, Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or similar)
- Experience building rigid-body robot models (URDF, MJCF, USD, or similar)
- Experience with cloud infrastructure and compute at scale
- Solid grasp of standard software development practices: Git, CI/CD, Jira or equivalent, feature branching
