Open Source Robotics Corporation
About the company: 

At Open Robotics, we work with industry, academia, and government to create and support open software and hardware for use in robotics, from research and education to product development. We develop and maintain the core of the Robot Operating System (ROS), and Gazebo, a 3D multi-robot simulator. Powered by the support of a global community, these tools are relied upon by hundreds of thousands of users and developers working with every type of robot imaginable.

The unifying theme of our team and our work is openness. We use and we build open systems, and we foster an open source community that is at the heart of our projects.

Job Description and Requirements:  

Combine art and engineering to design and create rich content for use in 3D simulations. Work with model artists to transform visual meshes into articulated simulation models with appropriate physical properties. Build a wide variety of simulation environments in which to test robot control and coordination systems.

Visit client sites to gather data to inform modeling for those environments. Create representative behavior for humans, vehicles, and other "non-player characters" that will inhabit simulation alongside the robots that are being controlled. Contribute to the design (and possibly implementation) of improved tools for building models, designing worlds, and expressing behavior in simulation.

ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Build models and environments for use in simulation
Support, maintenance, and documentation of simulation assets
Testing and quality assurance

SKILLS / JOB REQUIREMENTS

Degree(s) in Digital Arts or a related field (recent graduates welcome), and/or equivalent industry experience

Experience designing digital content and character behavior (e.g., for video games)
Singapore citizenship or permanent residency required

NICE TO HAVE’S

Knowledge of at least one scripting language such as Lua, Python, or Ruby
Experience with Linux
Experience with physics-based simulation
Experience with robot kinematics and dynamics
Several years of industry experience
