About the role
You'll help define the simulation substrate Luma uses to train general-purpose robot policies — a faithful, controllable simulation of the world built on our generative video and 3D models. You'll sit at the boundary between generative models and classical physics simulation, and decide where each one earns its keep.
It's a role at the edge of generative rollouts and physics engines, building environments and evaluation harnesses trainable at scale. It fits someone with real simulation-systems experience who's shipped tools other people used. If you want a pure-research or pure-graphics seat, this lives in the hybrid between them.
