Samsung Research America, 665 Clyde Avenue, Mountain View, CA +1
The Robot Intelligence Lab at Samsung Research America (SRA) is building the foundational "brains" for the next generation of intelligent, physical robots. We are looking for a Senior Simulation Software Engineer to design and scale our cloud-hosted, high-performance simulation pipeline.
In this role, you will act as the critical engineering pillar of our lab—collaborating closely with world-class AI researchers to transition cutting-edge algorithms (manipulation, locomotion, and VLA models) from mathematical concepts into robust, physical-world realities. If you are passionate about optimizing GPU-accelerated simulators (like IsaacSim/MuJoCo), building robust C++/Rust/Python components, and deploying massive cloud-based training workflows to close the simulation-to-reality gap, this is your playground.
Our total rewards programs are designed to motivate and engage exceptional talent. The base pay range for roles at this level is listed below, but may be higher or lower in other states due to geographic differentials in the labor market. Within the base pay range, individual rates depend on a number of factors—including the role’s function and location as well as the individual’s knowledge, skills, experience, education and training. This is part of our comprehensive compensation package with annual bonus eligibility and generous benefits to help you live life well.
