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-world marine conditions and vehicle behavior. Your work will enable rapid testing, validation, and iteration of autonomy algorithms in a controlled workplace—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 robust 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 Qualifications

Bachelor’s/Master’s/PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or related field

5+ years of experience in robotics simulation / modeling / digital twin systems

Solid programming skills in C++

Experience with simulation engines (Unreal Engine, Unity, NVIDIA Isaac, or similar)

Solid understanding of physics, lin Apply on Kit Job: kitjob.in/job/4lrcsu
