Your mission
You are the architect of our "Digital Twin," bridging the gap between theoretical physics and physical reality. You own the mathematical integrity of our robots, ensuring that every load spec and torque requirement is derived from first principles. Your work provides the roadmap for our mechanical and actuator teams to build hardware that is "correct by design".
Key responsibilities
Digital Twin Stewardship: Build and maintain high-fidelity URDF models and simulation environments that serve as the single source of truth for the entire engineering organization.
System Modeling: Conduct static and dynamic analyses to identify critical torque and load specifications, feeding these requirements directly into the hardware design cycle.
MBSE Implementation: Utilize Model-Based Systems Engineering to predict physical limitations and optimize system-level performance before a single part is machined.
Method Development: Create "best-in-class" simulation tools and methodologies that accelerate our engineering velocity.
Your profile
We seek builders ready to move beyond demos to real-world deployment - professionals who value precision and reliability as much as innovation.
Experience: 5+ years of experience with a profound understanding of classical physics and multi-body dynamics in the robotics context.
Core Skills
Simulation Expert: Mastery of FEA, MBSE, MATLAB, Gazebo, MuJoCo, and similar environments to decode complex physical constraints.
Robotics Simulation & Control Engineering: Deep expertise in mechatronics and classical system identification (model structure/parameter selection), with a proven ability to design virtual environments, deploy classical and ML-based control stacks, and execute simulation-based experiments to optimize kinematics, packaging, and hardware configurations prior to physical manufacturing.
Mindset
Collaborative Communicators: Individuals who can bridge the gap between mechanical, electrical, and software teams to ensure seamless system integration.
Results-Oriented Designers: Professionals with a "hands-on" mindset who enjoy troubleshooting prototypes and refining designs based on empirical test data.
Why us?
The Team: Work alongside leadership with a proven track record of building unicorn-scale companies and defining global robotics standards.
Smart Strategy: We operate as disciplined fast followers. Capital is timed to the deployment inflection point, avoiding early-mover dead ends to scale fast on proven foundations.
Resources: We are substantially internally funded and attract top-tier investors to avoid any capital constraints for our mission.
Historic Opportunity: Join at the dawn of a new industry comparable to the rise of the automobile. Help shape the European champion in this trillion-dollar market.
