• Develop simulation capabilities for cameras, LiDAR, radar, GNSS, IMUs, and machine sensors.
• Lead scenario generation, replay, regression testing, robot learning, and policy evaluation.
• Establish simulation-to-real correlation, fidelity, timing, determinism, and acceptance criteria.
• Scale parallel robotics simulation, reinforcement learning, and synthetic-data workloads on CoreWeave GPU infrastructure.
• Own a major technical capability across multiple teams and programs, translating ambiguous business and engineering problems into scalable architectures and production software.
• Lead architecture reviews, technical investigations, design decisions, and engineering standards.
• Balance research and prototyping with secure, maintainable, production-ready delivery.
• Mentor senior and developing engineers and support technical hiring and onboarding.
• Partner across simulation, robotics, autonomy, controls, AI, data, cloud, product, and customer-facing organizations.
• Establish a reference architecture and technical roadmap for the capability area.
• Deliver reusable platform components and measurable engineering outcomes within the first 12 months.
• Improve quality, automation, scalability, and cross-team adoption while reducing duplicated solutions.
• Develop technical depth across the broader engineering organization through mentoring and standards.
