Antioch | Simulation Engineer | New York City | Full Time | https://antioch.com

Antioch is building the simulation platform for robotics and perception systems. Spin up full-stack digital twins, run scenarios to test and validate behavior, and deploy, entirely in software.

Role:

Build high-fidelity models of sensors and physical components:

— Design and implement simulation capabilities for sensors, actuators, and interactivity (contacts, dynamics, timing, noise, artifacts, etc.).

— Build and calibrate simulations for one or more sensing modalities (e.g. cameras, lidar, radar, infrared/thermal, UV), including realistic failure modes and edge cases.

- Model the full sensor pipeline where relevant: optics/RF + noise sources + signal processing (e.g. camera ISP behaviors, radar DSP stages).

Partner directly with customers to ingest their existing physical systems into Antioch (robots, sensors, actuators, environments):

— Translate incomplete specs + messy real-world data into working simulation models with clear assumptions and documented gaps.

— Drive the integration to completion: “runs in sim, matches reality within defined tolerances, and is usable by the customer.”

— Design and implement simulation capabilities for sensors, actuators, and interactivity (contacts, dynamics, timing, noise, artifacts, etc.).

— Build and calibrate simulations for one or more sensing modalities (e.g. cameras, lidar, radar, infrared/thermal, UV), including realistic failure modes and edge cases.

I work at Antioch and we've been trying to solve the testing and validation bottleneck in autonomy. Sharing our perspective on how simulation tools should fit into the development cycle for robotics.
