One Autonomy for All Robots. Field-proven embodied AI software that is finally unlocking the full potential of mobile robots in the real world. Backed by Khosla.
About the role
We are looking for a Robotics Simulation Software Engineer to build and improve Field AI’s internal simulation tools used for autonomy development, debugging, and evaluation. This role is for someone who goes beyond simply running simulators. We are looking for an engineer who can maintain and extend simulation systems, improve code quality and fidelity, debug simulator-to-robot gaps, and help turn real-world robot behavior into reproducible simulation scenarios.
What they're looking for
- 3+ years of experience developing robotics simulation tools, simulation infrastructure, autonomy evaluation systems, or related robotics software
- Strong software engineering skills in C++ and/or Python
- Experience with simulation platforms such as Isaac Sim, Gazebo, MuJoCo, Unity, Unreal, or custom robotics simulators
- Familiarity with ROS2 or similar robotics middleware, including sensors, transforms, logs, and timing
- Experience with robot or simulation assets such as URDF, SDF, meshes, dynamics, or sensor models
- Ability to debug simulator-to-robot gaps across sensing, timing, dynamics, and autonomy behavior
More about this role
FieldAI ’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in the heart of Southern California’s robotics ecosystem, we build risk-aware, reliable, field-ready AI systems that solve the hardest problems in robotics and unlock the full potential of embodied intelligence. If you want your work to ship, get tested on hardware, and improve through real deployments, Irvine is the place. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-only architectures, combining rigorous engineering with learning systems proven in globally deployed solutions that deliver results today and get better every time our robots run in the field.
