## About the role

We’re looking for a motivated, hands-on engineer to build simulation content pipelines that create rich, diverse, and useful environments for evaluating and improving robot policies. You’ll design production-quality systems for generating, managing, validating, and deploying scenes, assets, and scenarios at scale. As a Member of Technical Staff, you’ll own substantial parts of the simulation-content authoring stack and ensure they integrate cleanly with the broader simulation platform.

## What they're looking for

- 2+ years of relevant experience
- Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience designing, building, and maintaining substantial software systems
- Experience building simulation-ready 3D assets, with strong judgment about visual and collision geometry, including trade-offs among fidelity, physical accuracy, and runtime performance
- Up-to-date knowledge of advances in simulation-ready asset and scene generation, with the ability to evaluate state-of-the-art methods and apply them pragmatically
- Ability to own ambiguous problem areas from initial design through production deployment
