Senior Robotics Engineer - Simulation, Eluru

Senior Robotics Engineer– Simulation&Autonomous Systems Bangalore | Full-Time | 5–8 Years Experience Role Overview We are seeking a Senior Robotics Engineer to architect and build advanced simulation and digital twin systems for large-scale autonomous platforms. In this role, you will develop high-fidelity virtual environments that accurately replicate real-worldmarine conditions and vehicle behavior. Your work will enable rapid testing, validation, and iteration of autonomy algorithms in a controlled environment—significantly reducing reliance on costly and time-intensive field trials.You will operate at the intersection of robotics, physics-based modeling, and real-time simulation , contributing to everything from environmental modeling and sensor simulation to full-system digital twins. This role requires strong ownership, as you will help define the simulation strategy, infrastructure, and validation frameworks that underpin the entire autonomy development lifecycle.Key Responsibilities Develop high-fidelity simulation environments for marine conditions (currents, waves, acoustics, etc.) Build and maintain digital twin systems for autonomous underwater vehicles Model vehicle physics including hydrodynamics, buoyancy, and 6-DOF motion Create realistic sensor simulations (sonar, LiDAR, IMU, cameras, etc.)Optimize simulation systems for real-time or faster-than-real-time performance Integrate simulation with ROS-based autonomy stacks Enable Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing Design validation frameworks to correlate simulation vs real-world performance Required QualificationsBachelor’s/Master’s/PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or related field 5+ years of experience in robotics simulation / modeling / digital twin systems Strong programming skills in C++ Experience with simulation engines (Unreal Engine, Unity, NVIDIA Isaac, or similar)Solid understanding of physics, linear algebra, and numerical methods Experience with ROS / ROS2 integration Hands-on experience in physics-based simulation Preferred Qualifications Experience in marine / underwater simulation or hydrodynamics Knowledge of autonomous systems, control systems, or validation frameworksExperience with GPU / parallel computing Familiarity with sonar / acoustic modeling Exposure to NVIDIA Omniverse / Isaac Sim Contributions to open-source or research publications in robotics Why Join Us Work on cutting-edge autonomous systems with real-world impact Accelerate development through advanced simulation technologiesSolve complex engineering challenges at the intersection of robotics and physics Opportunity to grow into a technical leadership role Competitive compensation + health insurance
