Collaborate with senior robotics and simulation engineers to understand a customer need and develop a Newton core feature or a reusable workflow using Newton.
Take ownership of a scoped contribution from investigation through implementation and evaluation, with guidance, mentoring, and code review from experienced engineers.
Design experiments to demonstrate measurable improvements in correctness, physical fidelity, reliability, performance, or usability using our robotics software stacks and, where appropriate, robotic hardware.
Use AI-assisted development tools to explore approaches, implement and debug code, and validate results.
Contribute tests, documentation, and maintainable software that help users get reliable simulation results and accelerate robot learning.
Requisiti principali
You are pursuing an MS or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Physics, or a related field.
Strong analytical abilities, with foundations in mathematical analysis, linear algebra, numerical algorithms, and physics.
Strong programming skills and the ability to understand, modify, and debug an existing codebase.
Proficiency with AI-assisted development and coding agents, including the ability to understand, challenge, and validate generated work and explain your technical decisions.
Good judgment in choosing meaningful problems and defining manageable experiments, with a willingness to learn independently and adapt as requirements and priorities change.
Solid software engineering foundations, clear technical communication, and a willingness to take responsibility for the quality and health of the shared project.
