# AV Senior Engineer: Simulation and Testing

Why Aidoptation? At Aidoptation, we develop autonomous driving software for high-speed (120kph) driving. Our EdgeDrive stack is built on deterministic, rule-based control and designed to avoid safety-critical situations before they arise. We hold the first authorisation to test Level 4 autonomy on public highways up to the speed limit. As a startup, we move fast and stay close to the technology, so your work ends up on real vehicles on real roads. Because of our roots in autonomous racing we build with precision and robustness. Role description In this role, you will lead the development of the simulation infrastructure for autonomy and control systems, with ownership of the environments, tooling and workflows that enable high-confidence validation before vehicle deployment. You will build and maintain SIL and HIL simulation capabilities using VI-grade's software ecosystem including VI-CarRealTime, Vi-Drivesim and Vi-Worldsim and related tooling that support the full development loop, including ROS 2 integration, time synchronization, logging, replay and repeatable execution at scale. You will be responsible for ensuring the simulation stack is both technically rigorous and operati
