Job description

Job Description: Multi-agent simulation platform (LOTUSIM) - Sensor Developer

We are seeking a Software Engineer (Sensor Developer) to join our R&D Centre of Excellence (CoE) at Naval Group Far East Pte Ltd. Reporting directly to the Chief Technical Officer, you will play a key role in advancing our multi-agent simulation platform (LOTUSim) and supporting the development of physics-based sensor models. Your work will directly support algorithm testing and the generation of high-fidelity data for AI applications.

About the Project (LOTUSim):

The CoE is jointly developing and maintaining the core of LOTUSim, a physics-driven multi-agent simulation platform designed to ensure accuracy in complex environments. It recreates aerial, surface and underwater vessels in maritime environments, allowing the generation of synthetic data and control of the assets. The platform enables developers to test new algorithms and create synthetic data for advanced AI and autonomy projects.

Your Role:

• Develop, improve, and maintain sensor models (e.g., radar, sonar, Doppler Velocity Log (DVL)), ensuring realistic behaviour in the simulation environment.
• Design and implement new sensor models based on evolving user requirements.
• Support the integration of sensors into the platform to enable testing of new algorithms and data generation for AI applications.
• Take ownership of sensor development, contributing your expertise and providing recommendations based on research and analysis.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to maintain and enhance the simulator’s capabilities.

Requirements:

• Proficiency in C/C++ and python
• Experience with sensors and power systems
• Comfortable with Linux, Docker, Git
• Basic understanding of physics principles and willingness to learn more
• Basic understanding on networks
• Strong problem-solving skills and an ability to work collaboratively in a team environment
