About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Evaluate, select, and implement the simulation stack for R3's robotic disassembly cells, integrating across robot programming, middleware, and CAD environments.
Build and maintain an automated recipe validation pipeline: ingest battery pack 3D scans, run candidate disassembly recipes in simulation, check for collisions, reachability, and force limits, and output validated programs ready for deployment.
Establish and maintain a single geometric source of truth across simulation, robot controller, and CAD ensuring that coordinates validated in simulation transfer to the physical machine without manual adjustment.
Develop PLC emulation and virtual commissioning capabilities to enable high-fidelity testing of safety interlocks, sensor triggers, and I/O sequences without requiring the physical cell.
Design the simulation architecture to support layered fidelity: fast kinematic checks for rapid iteration and full dynamic simulation for final validation.
Collaborate with the middleware, perception, and mechanical design teams to ensure simulation models stay synchronized with the evolving robotic cell design.
Create CI/CD workflows for simulation: automated regression testing of recipes before deployment, version-controlled simulation assets, reproducible test environments.
Contribute to the long-term architecture for ML-assisted recipe generation using simulation as the feedback loop.
Document simulation procedures, validation criteria, and deployment best practices.

Requirements

What you’ll need

5+ years of hands-on experience building or maintaining simulation environments for industrial robot manipulation (not exclusively mobile robotics or autonomous vehicles).
Proficiency in at least one industrial robot simulation platform (KUKA.Sim, RoboDK, NVIDIA Isaac Sim).
Strong Python and C++ skills for automation scripting, tool integration, and pipeline development
