The Bot Company

We're a lean, multidisciplinary team of engineers building the future of home robotics.

Our mission is to automate mundane tasks and give people back their time to focus on what they love.

We work across the stack with a culture built for rapid iteration and fast execution.

What we look for in all candidates

All roles at The Bot Company demand extreme sharpness and the ability to move fast in high-intensity environments. Throughout the process, we expect candidates to demonstrate:

• Exceptional mental acuity: you think quickly, learn instantly, and reason across unfamiliar domains.

• Engineering curiosity: you naturally dig into how systems work, even outside your specialty.

• High performance mindset: you move fast, handle ambiguity, and excel when the environment is demanding.

Simulation Engineer

You’ll build and extend the simulation systems that power our robotics development pipeline. This includes creating new simulation features, modifying framework internals, and pushing Isaac or MuJoCo far beyond out-of-the-box capabilities to accurately model complex real-world behavior.

Requirements

• Very strong coding skills in Python and/or C++.

• Extensive experience with Isaac or MuJoCo, including making deep, framework-level changes and developing new capabilities.

• Strong academic or open-source track record: high-quality datasets, public code, a strong GitHub profile, and publications as a main author.

What You’ll Do

• Build new simulation features and extend underlying physics/engine internals.

• Design high-fidelity simulations of robotic systems and real-world environments.

• Collaborate with robotics, perception, and platform teams to ensure simulation accuracy and scalability.

• Move quickly and independently to prototype, test, and iterate on complex simulation systems.

Why Join

You’ll work with a small, elite team on challenges that require speed, intelligence, and deep engineering instinct. If you enjoy understanding systems at all levels, move fast, and think even faster, you’ll thrive here.
