Your profile

We're looking for a technically strong individual to help shape our simulation capabilities. This role involves building sophisticated models that reflect the behavior of complex systems, with a focus on accuracy, performance, and innovation.

###

Key Responsibilities:

Simulation Development + Design and implement physics-based simulations for soft robotic systems using NVIDIA Omniverse and PhysX.
+ Develop and optimize finite element models that accurately represent material deformations, stress distributions, and dynamic behaviors.
+ Create simulation workflows that integrate with our AI-driven design pipeline.
Physics Integration + Implement multi-physics simulations combining mechanical, fluid dynamics, and material science models.
+ Ensure accurate representation of soft material properties and behaviors in virtual environments.
Performance Optimization + Optimize simulation performance to balance accuracy and computational efficiency.
+ Implement iterative mesh optimization techniques for critical regions requiring higher fidelity.
Validation & Calibration + Design and execute simulation validation tests against physical prototypes.
+ Develop automated calibration systems to minimize deviations between simulated results and physical performance.
API Development + Create robust APIs that allow communication between simulation environments and other platform components.
+ Implement data extraction methods for simulation results analysis.
Documentation & Best Practices + Maintain comprehensive documentation of simulation models and methodologies.
+ Establish best practices for simulation development and validation.

###

Required Qualifications:

Master's or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Computational Physics, or a closely related field. Strong expertise in computational mechanics, finite element analysis, and physics simulation. Minimum 3 years of experience with physics simulation software (e.g., ANSYS, COMSOL, Abaqus) or equivalent. Proficiency in C++, Python, or other languages commonly used for simulation development. Experience with mesh generation, optimization, and refinement techniques. Understanding of soft materials behavior and non-linear deformation mechanics. Strong mathematical foundation in continuum mechanics and numerical methods. Familiarity with NVIDIA Omniverse, PhysX, or similar game physics engines is a significant plus. Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail. Ability to work in a fast-paced environment with changing requirements. Version Control: Proficiency with Git and collaborative workflows using GitHub or GitLab (e.g., pull requests, branching strategies, code reviews). CI/CD: Experience setting up or using continuous integration tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins) for building, testing, and validating simulation code. Experience with visualization tools such as ParaView, VTK, Blender, or NVIDIA Omniverse and libraries libraries like VTK, PyVista, or vedo.
