Senior Robotics Simulation Engineer

Antioch; New York (NY); On-site; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

Antioch, the agentic simulation platform for robotics and autonomy, is hiring Simulation Engineers to bring real customer systems into Antioch, push the platform’s fidelity, and develop the agentic harness that enables automated simulation.

This is an early, high-ownership builder role where you’ll translate incomplete real-world data into validated simulations, work across physics, sensors, data, and tooling, and ship production-ready capabilities that customers can trust.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with robotics or hardware simulation (Isaac Sim/Lab, MuJoCo, Gazebo, PyBullet).
• Experience simulating sensing modalities and physics (optics, RF, noise).
• Ability to port complex physical systems into simulation and reason about sim-to-real fidelity.
• Strong Python for data analysis, automation, and tooling.
• Track record shipping production-ready capabilities.

Responsibilities

• Ingest customer systems and translate incomplete specs into working simulation models.
• Design and implement simulation capabilities across the stack: dynamics, contacts, actuators, environments, and sensors.
• Build high-fidelity models of sensing systems with realistic noise and full-pipeline behaviors (optics/RF, ISP, DSP).
• Make models performant, profile bottlenecks, reduce compute cost, and improve determinism and reproducibility.
• Build internal Python tooling for calibration, testing, and repeatable customer onboarding.
• Build the simulation bindings for Antioch’s agentic framework, to enable automated digital twin creation and scenario testing.
• Communicate clearly with customers and internal teams about assumptions, tradeoffs, and limitations.
