Pipeline Simulation information

What is the difference between Pipeline Simulation vs Pipeline Engineer?

AspectPipeline SimulationPipeline Engineer
Primary FocusModeling and analyzing pipeline systems using simulation softwareDesign, construction, and maintenance of pipeline infrastructure
Required CredentialsEngineering degree, knowledge of simulation toolsEngineering degree, often professional engineering license
Work EnvironmentSoftware labs, office settings, project planningField sites, construction sites, office work
Industry UsageUsed for planning, safety analysis, and optimizationInvolved in actual pipeline development and operations

Pipeline Simulation specialists focus on modeling pipeline systems to optimize performance and ensure safety, often working in software environments. Pipeline Engineers are responsible for designing and maintaining pipeline infrastructure in the field. Both roles require engineering backgrounds, but their daily tasks and work environments differ significantly.

Job description

Role Description
We are looking to recruit an exceptional Modeling & Simulation Engineer to work on our robot models, environment models, and simulation pipeline.
In this role you will:
  • Define simulation requirements
  • Develop performant, cutting-edge mathematical models of robots, manipulators and the scenes in which they operate
  • Strike the perfect balance between fidelity and computational complexity
  • Integrate simulation-based assessment into CI/CD pipelines in a way that scales
  • Make simulation an indispensable part of our entire design, development and deployment process

You will be working closely with the Simulation, Motion Planning & Controls, Field Operations and Intelligence teams.
Qualifications
Must-have:
  • MS or PhD in engineering, mathematics, computer science or a related discipline
  • Experience in mathematical modeling of complex dynamic systems
  • Ability to take ownership of a large, strategically important development project and drive its success
  • Willingness to step in and support other teams when we have tight deadlines and problems to solve

Nice-to-have:
  • Familiarity with environments for robotic simulation including Isaac Sim
  • Experience in some combination of:
    • applied optimization
    • modeling of mechanical contact
    • creation of detailed 3D world models
    • GPU acceleration of physics simulations
    • deployment of numerically-intensive simulations to cloud compute platforms
    • integration of simulation tests into CI/CD pipelines
    • creation of simulation test cases from real-world data
    • simulation for HiL testing
