The Role

Robotics Simulation Engineer By artefacts In jobs Artefacts is building a set of software tools for robotics software developers, facilitating Continuous Simulation in their workflow and tight integration with CI. We hope to help them take on the challenge of creating an advanced robotized world that will enable a more efficient and environmentally friendly society. We also believe that emerging AI techniques will dramatically change the way robotics software is built. The Role The role focuses on creating tools to help robotic engineers simulate and test their robots in rich and relevant virtual environments. You will work closely with engineers working on robotics who will use the tools you are building. This means

• Create parametric / procedural 3d environments
• Integrate AI tools to generate simulations or assets from text, images, etc.
• Customization / tweaking of simulation engine performance for simulation at scale
• Implement custom sensor models in simulation

If you are interested in the role Please consider contacting us to apply! We expect a few things from you:

• Enthusiasm and interest toward building realistic 3D environments as well as robotics and AI.
• You will have room for growth, and many challenges.
• We are enthusiastic and interested in our own specialties!
• Ready to join a startup.
• It can be messy, and requires personal commitment.
• We expect you to work with us, not for us. We would like to see what you have done already.
• Any publicly visible work such as open source contributions, personal blogs, Medium contributions, published paper etc.
• Any publicly visible accounts such as Github, StackExchange etc.
• Presentations at meetups / conferences?
• Work / Projects you are particularly proud of

In terms of technologies and skills, we are interested in experience with:

• Rust, Python or C++ or development experience
• Experience using or building 3D Engines (Unreal, Unity, Ogre3D …) and physics simulation (Dart, ODE, PhysX)
• Experience with parametric 3D modeling (Blender nodes, OpenSCAD…)
• Experience with generative AI for 3D/CAD

Below are optional

• Experience with robotics or robotics simulators
• Experience with Photogrammetry / Nerf
• Experience with cloud computing / high performance computing
• Experience with GIS data sources
• Experience with generative AI building or training ML models
• Experience with 3D printing
• Experience in UI/UX design

The ideal candidate If You Score Yourself High On All The Items, We Definitely Hope For a Chance To Talk With You. We Will Consider Some Extras

• Experience with “real world” robot applications.
• A real passion for Simulation Software or building Interactive Environments.
• Graduate degree in related disciplines.
• Degree is not necessary to apply, but if a work-visa is required, can make the visa-application process difficult without extensive, related work experience
• The role would benefit from advanced analytical skills.

Application stages: Getting to know each other We hope applying to work with us is a great experience. We value your time and your interest! We think the best way to decide working together is first to know more of each other, starting with us sharing our online profiles. We propose meeting a number of times, primarily online, and freely talk about you, about us, and about what we could achieve together. As much as we would like to meet every applicant, we expect first reading about your motivation for applying, and seeing your past achievements. This should give us a chance to reply early whether we should meet for the occasion. We promise to reply to each serious application. In Short, Here Is a Typical Application Flow

• You apply, sending us a resume and a cover letter. Again, we value very much seeing your public contributions.
• We invite you for a first online meeting, or explain why we may not meet this time.
• We may organize other meetings, for you and us to know better, sometimes on site.
• We expect to make decisions relatively rapidly.
• We may ask for references.

To apply, send an email at jobs at this domain. Conditions and Team Membership How We Work Together Is In Flux, As The Team And Company Grow. We Aim At Adapting Working Conditions As We All See Fit. Currently

• We encourage asking “why”.
• Inclusive.
• Personal growth-oriented environment.
• Honest salaries.
• No bonus culture.
• Modern offices within 5 min walking distance from Shinjuku station (the building is a few years old).
• Some prefer remote work, some office work, some change every day.
• We gather at the office when needed.
• We breathe open source, when it makes sense.
• Medical checkup support in Tokyo.
• We love challenges and opportunities that make us evolve.
• Full or part time as you prefer. We usually start with a three-month contract to start working together.
• Remote-first team. Preference for candidates in the JST timezone or so, and candidates in Japan (hardware!)
  
  

We hope these items paint a constructive image of our work style. All these items depend on the team, and your presence will influence them, as a partner. Back to Blog
