About the role
As a Senior Simulation Engineer, you will lead the development and integration of advanced simulation environments to support robotics research, testing, and deployment. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams to design realistic physics-based simulations, implement complex robotic behaviors, and optimize rendering and performance. Your work will directly impact the development and validation of real-world robotic systems by providing scalable, high-fidelity virtual testing environments. This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of physics, software engineering, and robotics .
Your Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and maintain scalable and high-fidelity simulation environments for various robotic systems (e.g., manipulators, mobile robots, humanoid robots)
- Develop and integrate realistic sensor models (e.g., LiDAR, cameras, IMUs, force/torque sensors) into simulation platforms
- Create accurate kinematic and dynamic models of robots and their interactions with the environment
- Collaborate with controls, planning, perception, and software engineers to ensure simulations accurately reflect real-world robot behavior and performance
- Develop tools and pipelines for simulation data analysis, visualization, and automated testing
- Identify, diagnose, and resolve simulation fidelity issues and discrepancies between simulation and reality
- Drive the adoption of best practices in simulation development, including modularity, reusability, and performance optimization
- Contribute to the architectural design and evolution of our simulation infrastructure
- Stay abreast of the latest advancements in robotics simulation tools, techniques, and research
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a culture of technical excellence and continuous improvement
Essential Skills
- Degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
- 5+ years of experience in robotics simulation development
- Proficient in C++ or Python and one or more major robotics simulation platforms like Gazebo, Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, or similar
- Strong understanding of robotics fundamentals (kinematics, dynamics, control, sensor fusion)
- Experience with 3D modeling and creating realistic simulation environments
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
- Experience with real-time physics engines and GPU acceleration
- As a plus: Knowledge of reinforcement learning or synthetic data generation
- As a plus: Familiarity with cloud-based simulations and CI/CD pipelines
What we offer
- A dynamic, highly qualified, and diverse team in which your contributions are reflected directly in our products and used by our international customer base
- Flat hierarchies and short decision-making processes
- Exciting and varying tasks for our product portfolio
- Excellent working environment, modern office space, and flexible working hours with the option of mobile working
Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
