Job summary

AutoStore, a global robotics automation company, seeks a Robotics Simulation Engineer in Atlanta. You will build virtual environments to test robots, grids and Physical AI before hardware is built, enabling rapid iteration and wide scenario coverage.

You will collaborate across mechanical, electrical, software and AI teams, develop tools and automate simulation workflows, and generate synthetic data to train perception and AI models, with results guiding real products in thousands of systems

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience applying simulation in robotics or product development.
• Hands-on experience with physics-based simulators such as Isaac Sim, Gazebo or MuJoCo.
• Strong Python programming and automation of simulation workflows.
• Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical, Electrical or Robotics Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.

Responsibilities

• Develop and run physics-based simulation environments for end-to-end testing of robots and Physical AI products.
• Build digital twins of AutoStore hardware and compare them with lab and field data to measure and improve fidelity.
• Set up software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop test benches, and add simulation test cases to regression and CI pipelines.
• Develop scenario generation and stress-testing methods to find unknown failure modes and edge cases.
• With the Engineering Tools and Services team, build tools and automated workflows so engineers can run what-if analyses without being simulation experts.
• Generate synthetic data and simulation environments to train and evaluate perception and AI models.
• Work with each team to pick the right level of model detail and present results clearly.
