Job Title

Role Summary Johnson & Johnson MedTech is recruiting for a Sr. Robotics Simulation Engineer, located in Santa Clara, CA. This role involves building and maintaining simulation tools for surgical robotic systems, enabling a model-based analysis framework to support technical trades and decisions. The candidate should have a strong background in the kinematics/dynamics of multi-axis systems, robot manipulators, physics, data analytics, and simulation modeling, and will collaborate with cross‑functional teams to align solutions with requirements and mitigate risks. Responsibilities Develop and maintain computational and logical models for key system performance aspects and behaviors. Create and execute realistic robotic system simulations utilizing NVIDIA technologies, including Isaac Sim and Omniverse. Perform ad‑hoc analysis of surgical robotics systems within cloud‑based computational platforms. Collaborate closely with design teams to create solutions that align with requirements and mitigate risks. Lead technical discussions and multi‑functional team meetings with a digital‑first approach. Contribute to building a knowledge database for digital assets and techniques applicable across projects. Qualifications Required: Minimum B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, Computer Science, or related engineering field with 4+ years of industry experience in Robotics Systems; or MS with 2+ years, or PhD with 0+ years of industry experience in Robotics Systems. Required: Solid foundation in kinematics, multi‑body dynamics, and control of multi‑axis mechanical applications. Required: Experience with NVIDIA Omniverse and Isaac Sim for robotics simulation, or Gazebo with ROS; experience with cloud‑based data platforms is preferred. Required: Strong analytical skills to partition, decompose, and solve complex engineering problems across domains. Required: Strong experience in robotics simulation, motion planning, and optimization. Preferred: Experience with physics engines; strong mathematical background; experience working with robotic arms. Preferred: Experience in MATLAB/Simulink and Python; experience with cloud‑based data analysis is a plus. Education Relevant advanced degrees (MS/PhD) acceptable with demonstrated robotics experience as noted above.
