With its A.I.-powered robotic technology platform, Symbotic is changing the way consumer goods move through the supply chain. Intelligent software orchestrates advanced robots in a high-density, end-to-end system – reinventing warehouse automation for increased efficiency, speed and flexibility.
Who we are
Our work matters – robotics is transforming the world of commerce. Every day our intelligent robots are responsible for getting food and merchandise to thousands of stores across North America. We’re an industry changer – we created the first and only fully autonomous, end-to-end supply chain solution.
Today, we are driving towards even bigger ideas – and we have the people, technology and leadership to fully realize these aspirations. We have the excitement and ambition of a startup with the benefits and resources of a proven organization.
What we need
Symbotic is currently seeking an experienced Director to lead our Simulation team. The candidate must understand the importance of fostering a strong team environment and the ability to develop trusting relationships with their team members. We are looking for a creative and collaborative person who thrives in an agile development environment. This role manages a talented team of roboticists working to provide a suite of simulation tools to support our development and testing teams. The development teams are primarily responsible to develop solutions to the challenges in managing a fleet of robots tasked with handling diverse individual cases in a warehouse environment with high reliability.
The Simulation team supports these efforts through enabling continuous and thorough testing of software changes during development to prevent issues in production environments. This team also builds tools for simulation aided design of new systems and behaviors that allows data driven decision making before embarking on innovative and novel system designs.
Not only is high-level technical contribution expected, but the role also requires excellent communication and leadership skills, and the ability to collaborate in a highly cross-functional environment.
