Robotics Simulation & Control Engineer
HumanoidJob Description
📋 Description Design and evaluate robot platforms using physics simulation. Analyze robot capabilities: workspace, manipulability, balance, torque limits. Use reinforcement learning to stress-test robot designs. Own and maintain URDF models of current and future platforms. Maintain the CAD → URDF → simulation pipeline. Develop tools and benchmarks for locomotion and platform robustness. 🎯 Requirements M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Robotics, Mechanical Eng, or Control. Strong foundation in robot kinematics and dynamics. Experience with robot simulation environments (MuJoCo, Gazebo, Isaac Sim). Experience with reinforcement learning in robotics or physics-based sim. Experience with URDF or similar robot description formats. Strong programming skills in Python and/or C++. 🎁 Benefits 23 days annual leave, 15 days sick leave, and paid holidays. Fully funded private healthcare in the UK with virtual and in-person care. Equity included — builders share in what they build. 8% total pension contribution (5% employee, 3% employer).
