What is the difference between Robot Simulation vs Robot Programmer?

AspectRobot SimulationRobot Programmer
Required CredentialsEngineering degree, CAD/Simulation software skillsEngineering or computer science degree, programming skills
Work EnvironmentDesign labs, simulation software environmentsManufacturing floors, robotics labs, programming environments
Industry UsageTesting, designing, and validating robot behaviors virtuallyWriting, testing, and deploying robot control code
Common Search IntentUnderstanding virtual robot testing and designLearning robot programming and control development

Robot Simulation focuses on creating virtual models and testing robot behaviors using simulation software, while Robot Programmer involves writing and implementing code to control physical robots. Both roles require technical skills but differ in their focus—virtual testing versus real-world programming.

Job description

Job Summary:
FieldAI is transforming how robots interact with the real world. They are seeking passionate engineers to play a vital role in the development of multi-robot simulation and fleet orchestration, working in a fast-paced environment to build realistic simulation environments for robots.
Responsibilities:
• Architect high-fidelity multi-robot simulation scenes (terrain, sensors, dynamic obstacles) and scale from single-agent tests to fleet scenarios.
• Integrate physics, perception, and comms models so agents behave realistically at fleet scale.
• Implement and evaluate fleet-level task allocation, coordination, and planning inside simulation.
• Build declarative mission tooling to run thousands of orchestration experiments and profile performance across latency, heterogeneity, and environment complexity.
• Calibrate simulation to real-world telemetry with field teams and reduce the sim-to-real gap.
• Build domain randomization, scenario generation, and automated regression/benchmark gates for fleet orchestration releases.
• Design logging, metrics, and visualization so every run yields actionable data and fleet KPIs (throughput, collisions, comms overhead, idle time).
• Maintain reproducible experiment infrastructure with versioned scenes, configs, and results.
• Partner with perception, planning, learning, DevOps, and infrastructure teams to run large-scale simulation and raise standards for fidelity, coverage, and release quality.
Qualifications:
Required:
• MS or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Aerospace, or a related field (or equivalent industry experience).
• 7+ years hands-on experience building simulation environments for robotics or autonomous systems.
• Proficiency in Python and C++; comfort reading and extending large codebases.
• Working knowledge of robotics simulation engines (e.g., MuJoCo, NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Genesis).
• Experience with multi-robot or multi-agent systems: task allocation, distributed planning, swarm coordination, or fleet management.
• Familiarity with standard robotics middleware.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to thrive in fast-paced, interdisciplinary teams.
• Ability to translate research into practical, field-deployable systems.
Preferred:
• Publications or open-source contributions in multiagent systems, multi-robot planning, or fleet coordination (ICRA, RSS, IROS, AAMAS, CoRL).
• Experience with domain randomization, synthetic data generation, or sim-to-real transfer at scale.
• Background in distributed systems or cloud-based simulation orchestration.
• Hands-on work with real robot fleets in field environments (e.g., construction, mining, logistics, defense).
• Contributions to open-source robotics or simulation frameworks.
Company:
FieldAI is building general robot intelligence for the physical world. Founded in 2023, the company is headquartered in Mission Viejo, USA, with a team of 201-500 employees. The company is currently Growth Stage.
