## 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
