At SWARM Biotactics , we’re creating biorobots — living, intelligent systems based on insects. Each insect carries a custom-designed backpack that enables wireless control, sensing, and secure communication.

Biorobot swarms combine the agility of biology with AI, sensing, and swarm coordination — unlocking capabilities where conventional machines fail.

We are the only company in the world doing this — and we’re pushing the edge of what’s possible in every domain: from biology to embedded hardware to swarm intelligence.

🚀 Join us at the frontier — and help create the first generation of living machines.

💡 Your Role — Simulation & Systems Engineer

You will design and build the simulation infrastructure that underpins how we develop, test, and scale biorobotic swarms.

Your work will enable robust experimentation, realistic sensing, and a smooth transition from simulation to real hardware.

What you’ll do

• Design modular simulation architectures supporting multiple levels of fidelity
• Build stable simulation interfaces decoupling autonomy software from simulation backends
• Enable large-scale multi-agent simulation
• Support software- and hardware-in-the-loop workflows
• Collaborate closely with autonomy, embedded, and AI teams

🧠 Your Profile

• Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• 3+ years of hands-on experience designing or extending simulation systems
• Strong background in system-level design and architecture , including stable interfaces and abstractions
• Proficiency in modern C++
• Hands-on engineer with a demonstrated track record of taking end-to-end technical ownership of complex systems
• Ability to collaborate effectively across disciplines

Nice to Have / Plus

• Experience with robotics or physical system modeling
• Familiarity with large-scale or multi-agent systems
• Solid understanding of determinism, reproducibility, and testing in complex software

🌍 Why SWARM Biotactics

• We’re well-funded and growing fast in a space no one else occupies
• You’ll work with a high-caliber, interdisciplinary team at the edge of science and engineering
• Your work will directly shape foundational technology for a new class of robotic systems
• You’ll tackle problems that don’t exist anywhere else
