This cornerstone role is centered on the design, development, and deployment of simulation systems that support rapid decision making for scalable high-performance manufacturing across domains such as forging, casting, maching, welding, and assembly. Your work will help shape the capabilities of our future factories through hands-on technical execution and cross-functional collaboration.
What You’ll Do
Develop and refine low-, mid-, and high-fidelity simulations that align with factory build and optimization goals.
Convert ambiguous layout concepts into executable DES and 3D simulations.
Collaborate with engineering, operations, and leadership to deliver data-driven, actionable simulation insights.
Maintain and enhance the simulation toolchain to support long-term scalability and usability.
Create and manage a robust library of parametric and reusable simulation assets..
What We’re Looking For
Strong systems thinking with a balance between rapid prototyping and sustainable platform design.
Demonstrated experience in simulation development using Python (OOP), Visual Components, Omniverse or similar tools.
Ability to distill technical results into clear insights for both technical and non-technical audiences.
Self-driven, capable of taking initiatives from concept to functional MVP with measurable impact.
Familiarity with kinematics, discrete event simulation, factory flows, and production methodologies.
What Will Set You Apart
Ability to rapidly build prototypes while thoughtfully managing long-term codebase health.
Excellent cross-functional communication, with a talent for user-focused storytelling and iterative design.
Broad technical skill set, including debugging, plugin/extension development (Python/C#), and data modeling.
Background in industrial engineering principles, including line balancing and ROI analysis.
Proficiency with 3D Modeling platforms (SolidWorks, NX, Blender), Siemens TeamCenter, and automated parametric asset creation.
Compensation
For this role, the target salary range is 150k-220k (actual range may vary based on experience).
This is the lowest to highest salary we reasonably and in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting. We may ultimately pay more or less than the posted range, and the range may be modified in the future. An employee's pay position within the salary range will be based on several factors, including, but not limited to, relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, geographic location, performance, and business or organizational needs.
