Drift is an AI copilot that helps robotics teams visualize, test, and train robots in realistic simulated environments. It connects to major simulation platforms and robotics middleware—Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, Gazebo, and ROS—to run and manage experiments, prebuilt robot models, and one-click environments. The product is offered as a subscription B2B SaaS targeted at robotics engineers and development teams. Core features include an AI-assisted workflow for scenario generation, simulation orchestration, and collaboration tools for sharing setups and results. Drift addresses the growing need for scalable, repeatable simulation workflows in robotics development and integrates with existing engineering toolchains.

About Drift
Drift is the world's first AI copilot for robotics simulations. We help developers set up, debug, and run simulations using natural language integrating seamlessly with ROS, Gazebo, and the broader simulation stack. Our mission is to democratize robotics development by reducing simulation time from months to days.
About the Role
We're hiring a Founding AI + Robotics Engineer who sits at the intersection of AI systems and robotics simulation. You'll work directly with the founders to architect and build the core intelligence behind Drift while bringing deep, hands-on robotics simulation expertise to ensure our agent actually works in the real world of ROS and Gazebo.
This isn't a role where you'll be handed specs. You'll shape what we build and how we build it.

Why Join Now
You'll be one of the first engineers at Drift, with real ownership over the technical direction. The problems are hard, the scope is wide, and you'll have direct impact on everything we ship. If you want to build tools you'd actually use yourself and make robotics development about innovation, not configuration this is the role.
This position is open to US citizens only.
