Software Engineer - Simulation Game Engine and World Systems

You will design world and scene representation systems, spatial data structures, and mapping pipelines for large-scale simulations. You will write optimized C++ for low-latency real-time systems, profile performance-critical code, and help define architecture and APIs for cross-domain autonomy integration.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement spatial data structures, entity component systems, spatial indexing, occupancy representations, and 4D object management
• Build and optimize computational geometry and world-state systems
• Write optimized C++20 for low-latency, cache-efficient, memory-conscious systems
• Profile hot paths, eliminate allocations, and improve real-time performance
• Drive architectural decisions and design APIs for cross-domain autonomy integration

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience
• Expert-level C++20 or later skills, including template metaprogramming, move semantics, SIMD, and systems-level performance optimization
• Experience building world or scene representations with dynamic object state, spatial indexing, and real-time updates
• Computational geometry knowledge, including coordinate transformations, spatial data structures, geometric algorithms, and collision or proximity systems
• Experience designing low-latency, high-throughput real-time software
• Python and shell scripting proficiency
• Experience with agentic coding tools and AI-assisted development workflows
• Willingness to travel up to once a month for up to one week
• U.S. citizenship
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance

Benefits

• Equity
• Health, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance
• 401k retirement benefits with employer match
• Learning and wellness stipends
• Paid time off
