You have strong opinions on model and agent behavior.
You are a systems-oriented fullstack engineer with hands-on experience integrating software with physical hardware or low-level systems.
You have exposure to simulation environments, game engines (Unreal, Unity, Isaac Sim), or robotics middleware (ROS/ROS2).
