Job description
Our Opportunity:

Are you ready to shape the future of fulfillment? Do you want to see your work drive innovation across a nationwide network? If so, the Chewy FC Science team is hiring!

We are on a mission to redefine how Chewy’s Fulfillment Network operates by building a high-fidelity Digital Twin—a real-time, AI-driven simulation that mirrors our fulfillment centers down to the last detail. Using the Nvidia Omniverse platform, we’re not just imagining the future; we’re creating it. Join us and be part of a team that’s pushing the boundaries of simulation, robotics, and computer vision to unlock new levels of growth and efficiency. Your ideas will influence key decisions, reduce costs, and elevate Chewy’s fulfillment capabilities to new heights.

We are hiring a Software Engineer II – Graphics/Simulation in Boston, MA, or Minneapolis, MN. In this position, you will join a growing team that’s working to build a Digital Twin of our Fulfillment Network. You will demonstrate your skills in computer graphics, simulation, scene rendering, and software engineering to build the foundation of the Digital Twin.
