Descrizione del lavoro

Walden Robotics is seeking a motivated, hands-on engineer to build simulation content pipelines that create rich, diverse 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, owning substantial parts of the simulation-content authoring stack and integrating with the broader simulation platform.

Competenze

• 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.

Mansioni

• Design and build scalable systems for authoring simulation scenes, assets, and evaluation scenarios.
• Define simulation tasks and scenarios that reflect real robotics priorities and expose policy weaknesses.
• Develop workflows that make simulation content composable, editable, reproducible, and easy to deploy.
• Build generation and curation pipelines that combine procedural methods, asset libraries, human input, and agentic workflows.
• Create validation and quality-control systems for geometry, physical properties, articulation, scene composition, and task relevance.
