Overview of job

What we need

We are looking for a Simulation Engineer to join our Simulation Team within our Software Engineering organization. Your job will be to design, develop, optimize, and scale simulation systems that support the design, validation, testing, and deployment of large-scale robotic warehouse automation solutions. You will work closely with robotics, controls, perception, cloud, and product teams to build simulation capabilities that accelerate engineering innovation and improve system performance. 

What we do

The Simulation Team is part of the Software Engineering organization, which is responsible for building the software platforms and technologies that power Symbotic's warehouse automation solutions. Our team develops simulation systems, digital twin platforms, cloud applications, and visualization tools that help engineers, operators, and stakeholders better understand, validate, and optimize robotic automation workflows.

What you’ll do

• Design, develop, and maintain simulation systems, tools, and virtual environments that support the development, testing, qualification, and deployment of robotic warehouse automation systems. 
• Develop faster-than-real-time, scalable, and optimized simulation environments to support engineering analysis, design validation, system testing, and operational planning. 
• Build and improve simulation capabilities across multiple levels of fidelity, including component-level, robot-level, fleet-level, and system-level simulation.
• Evaluate existing simulation tools, identify performance, scalability, accuracy, and usability gaps, and drive improvements that enable faster and more cost-effective engineering workflows. 
• Support simulation coverage for individual robots, perception, controls, routing, fleet coordination, warehouse operations, and system-wide automation scenarios. 
• Collaborate with robotics, controls, perception, cloud, QA, and product teams to align simulation capabilities with product development, testing, deployment, and operational needs.
• Provide senior leadership and cross-functional stakeholders with clear technical insights, trade-off analysis, risks, and recommendations to support long-term simulation and robotics roadmaps. 
• Mentor other engineers, share technical knowledge, promote engineering best practices, and help the team deliver innovative and scalable simulation solutions. 
• Maintain clear technical documentation, architecture diagrams, simulation design notes, configuration guides, and operational usage instructions. 
• Stay up to date with modern simulation technologies, robotics frameworks, digital twin platforms, physics engines, rendering engines, cloud-based simulation, and AI-assisted development tools. 
• Perform other related duties as reasonably assigned by the direct manager or the Employer.

Our Benefits

• Comprehensive Health & Insurance: Social insurance, annual health checkups, full insurance coverage during probation, and private health insurance extending to up to 3 family members.
• Competitive Compensation: 13th-month salary and performance-driven team perks.
• Work-Life Balance & Flexibility: 15 days of paid annual leave, flexible check-in hours, and 1 remote working day per week.
• Workplace & Equipment: High-spec work laptop, premium coffee, and daily snacks provided.
• Team Culture: Company trips, weekly team bonding activities, and regular social events.

• Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, or related technical discipline.
