Simulation Application Developer

Mimic Technologies is a pioneer and leader in Robotic Surgery Simulation. Founded in 2001, our passion is to fuse virtual reality and surgical robotics to create revolutionary products and unique services that will profoundly impact people’s lives.

Responsibilities will include working with engineers, artists, and 3D modelers to implement simulation technology and training scenarios to educate surgeons in various aspects of robotic surgical equipment and techniques. At Mimic we use a rapidly evolving, proprietary surgical simulation engine and the applicant will be expected to adapt quickly to technology changes and implement and incorporate new engine capabilities as needed.

Software development will be in both C++ and Lua. The candidate must be familiar with high-fidelity, real-time physics simulation including collision shape modeling, and stability issues. Fluency in 3D transforms is a must.

Qualified candidates should be capable of taking on significant projects and completing them independently as well as working with a small team to deliver polished results on a tight timeline.

• Professional C++ development experience
• Proficiency with Lua, Python, or similar scripting language
• Real-time simulation application development experience
• Experience working with commercial physics APIs (Nvidia PhysX a plus)
• A solid basis in 3D mathematics and physics
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and organizational skills
• Experience using version control and bug tracking software as part of a team of developers
