Jobs

As a Staff Simulation Engineer at Shield AI, you will be instrumental in turning frontier autonomy into mission-ready aircraft by owning the commit-to-flight pipeline. You will design, build, and scale C++-based simulation tools to test and validate the full aircraft software stack, ensuring safety and repeatability. This role involves developing deterministic, high-performance simulation frameworks, integrating core physics models, and contributing to architectural decisions for next-generation aircraft simulation tools. We are looking for candidates with 5+ years of C++ development experience, a strong understanding of real-time systems, and a background in robotics, aerospace, or autonomous systems simulation.
