apeirum partners with European engineering companies to place senior software talent. For one of our client partners — an established engineering company in

Barcelona

— we're hiring a

Simulation Engineer for Robotic Drive Systems

to build and evolve an internal

simulation & visualization platform

used in complex engineering design.

As a our new

Simulation Engineer for Robotic Drive Systems , you will develop and improve simulation capabilities for robotic actuators and drive systems. You will work on engineering models, simulation workflows, and visualization of drive behavior to support requirements engineering, system design, and performance evaluation. You will also contribute to the software tools and interfaces that make these simulations accessible and useful for engineering teams.

Tasks

Develop, validate, and maintain simulation models for robotic drive systems, including motors, gearheads, sensors, controllers, and mechanical loads.

Create simulation workflows to evaluate drive performance, thermal behavior, control response, and system-level requirements.





Work closely with robotics, control, and application engineers to translate real-world drive behavior into reliable simulation models.

Improve simulation accuracy, model usability, and visualization of key drive-system parameters.

Support the development of user-friendly simulation interfaces, dashboards, or web-based tools that help engineers configure, run, and interpret simulations.

Contribute to simulation methods, validation approaches, reusable model libraries, and supporting software tools for robotic drives.

Requirements

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechatronics, Robotics, Control Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

Experience with simulation, modeling, or system analysis tools such as Python, MATLAB/Simulink, Modelica, or similar.

Strong interest in robotic actuators, drive systems, control engineering, and mechatronic system beha
