Senior Software Engineer (gn) Simulation

Your mission

Here at Wandelbots we want to accelerate the development of robotic applications for any articulated robot imaginable. As a Simulation Expert, you will help us simulate robot behaviors, workspaces, and automation processes to ensure safe and efficient deployment of our solutions. You will play a key role in building and integrating simulation capabilities into our software platform. 

Your Responsibilities:

• Develop, integrate, and maintain realistic simulations of robotic systems and work cells

• Build 3D models of robots, end-effectors, and workspaces using simulation tools (e.g., NVIDIA Omniverse & Isaac Sim, Blender, ProcessSimulate, Gazebo, etc.)

• Collaborate with robotics engineers and software developers to integrate simulation results into our product ecosystem

• Support validation, testing, and optimization of robot motions and behaviors in simulated environments

• Work on the creation of digital twins and virtual commissioning setups

• Research and implement state-of-the-art simulation algorithms for kinematics, dynamics, and collision detection

• Continuously improve simulation realism, performance, and accuracy

• Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and knowledge sharing sessions

Your profile

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience

• Several years of professional experience in robotics simulation, digital twins, or virtual environments

• Hands-on experience with one or more leading simulation frameworks (preferably NVIDIA Omniverse & Isaac Sim, but also Blender, ProcessSimulate, Gazebo, or similar)

• Solid understanding of kinematics, dynamics, motion planning, and collision detection

• Strong programming skills in at least one of the following languages: Python, C++, .Net

• Familiarity with real-time simulation and physics engines

• Knowledge of robot control systems and articulated robot behavior

• Experience with version control systems like Git

• Proactive, self-driven personality with strong problem-solving skills

• Fluent in English (German is a plus)

Awesome if you have:

• Previous experience with industrial robots and automation systems

• Knowledge of ROS / ROS2 and integration with simulation environments

• Experience with cloud-based simulation platforms and rendering pipelines

• Familiarity with machine learning applications in simulation or robotics

• Experience with 3D modeling, rendering, and scene setup

About us

EASY-TO-USE-ROBOTICS FOR EVERYONE

Imagine a world with more room to unleash our unique cognitive strengths at work. A world where all people – whether craftsmans, blue-collars worker or engineers – have access to automation technologies that perform inhuman, monotonous and high-precision tasks much more efficiently than we do.

At Wandelbots, we're fundamentally reshaping the way to work with robots. We eliminate the complexity and develop easy-to-use solutions to speed up automation and empower everyone to work with industrial robots and beyond.

Mission

2017 founded, Wandelbots employs more than 100 people from 14 countries today. From our headquarters in Dresden Germany, we are giving our heart and soul to follow our mission, to empower everybody to easily work with robots.

Our Culture

Wandelbots’ team culture is deeply driven by our purpose and values. We love autonomy, high fives, and every kind of cake. We celebrate team efforts and learning moments. We grow through feedback and honor kindness and empathy. We build waterslides and invent anti-racism campaigns. We are creative, innovative and blessed with a can-do attitude. We truly believe that robots love people, so we just do love them back.
