  • Improving and enhancing components that enable simulation-based development and testing
  • Enhancing developer experience around running, debugging, and diagnosing simulations
  • Augmenting the capabilities of the simulation for current and future needs 
  • Improving visibility and diagnostics so failures are faster to reproduce and fix

Test integration, Regression and Release Engineering

  • Running and supporting large‑scale regression systems
  • Improving code maintainability, documentation, and developer workflows as systems scale

If you are looking for a place where you can develop your real-world engineering skills, gain hands-on experience creating direct impact, and drive engineering excellence enhancements, then this may be the place for you! 

 

Essential:

  • A degree (or expected degree) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, or a similar discipline
  • Programming experience in C, C++ and/or Python (university, internships, personal projects all count)
  • Comfort with debugging and problem-solving in unfamiliar codebases
  • Enthusiasm for use of AI tools in software engineering
  • Clear communication and collaboration skills

Desirable:

  • Exposure to Windows and Linux development environments
