Job description

Simulation & Digital Twin Engineer

Description

  • Own simulation software configuration management, source control, build automation, and release processes to ensure traceable, repeatable, and validated digital twin environments throughout the product development lifecycle.

  • Build a high-fidelity digital twin (physics, drivetrain, sensors) of the vehicle and environment.

  • Develop and maintain validated vehicle dynamics models representing steering, braking, drivetrain, and vehicle responses.

  • Develop scalable scenario generation frameworks for autonomy verification and validation.

  • Generate synthetic training and validation datasets supporting perception development.

  • Guarantee simulation scenarios cover all key autonomy modes and edge cases within defined ODD.

  • Define simulation coverage metrics to quantify validation completeness and corner-case exposure.

  • Develop ground-truth and sensor-fidelity models for camera, LiDAR, radar, GNSS, and inertial sensors.

  • Support virtual validation initiatives to reduce physical testing requirements.

  • Integrate ROS2 autonomy stack for closed-loop simulation.

Qualifications

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Software, Electrical, or Mechatronic Engineer or other related field required.

  • Years of Experience: 2 years of relevant experience required.

  • Software Knowledge: Python, C or similar programming languages required; ROS2 architecture, Linux development environments, version control systems (Git) required.

Additional Requirements:

  • Required Skills: Digital twin development workflows. Experience with simulation platforms and Python-based simulation environments. Understand physics simulation, vehicle dynamics, and sensor modelling. Sim-to-real validation approaches. Experience integrating robotics systems into simulation. Ability to design test scenarios and evaluate simulation outputs. Experience using Git, Azure DevOps or equivalent source-control systems. Familiarity with automated build systems, CI/CD pipelines, and test automation.

  • Preferred Skills: Experience with autonomy simulation platforms such as CARLA, Gazebo, Isaac Sim, or Omniverse. Strong understanding of ROS2 architecture. Domain randomization in synthetic data generation for AI/ML. LiDAR, camera, GPS simulation models. Experience with SIL/HIL validation methodologies.

Travel Requirements:

  • ~10% travel required to collect ground-truth data, validate simulation fidelity against field results, and support correlation between virtual and real-world testing.

  • Valid driver’s license required.

Open to considering remote work for this opportunity. Employees who are working in remote roles will work primarily offsite (from home).
