Apprentice Junior Solutions Architect

Location: First 3 months in San Mateo office, followed by remoteDuration: 6-12 monthsAbout Us:

We work at the cutting edge of accurate digital twin simulation for AI, smart systems, and robotics. Imagine — Fortnite but with robots and humans! With Falcon, Duality’s digital twin simulation platform, users build physically and visually accurate 3D worlds where autonomous robots and human participants can engage in real time, producing high fidelity perception and interaction data. Our customers leverage Falcon to train and test off-road autonomous machines, deploy robotic fleets in modern logistics environments, and even safely and economically explore the potential of generative AI in our physical world. Today’s leading robotics, AI, and autonomy teams trust Falcon to help them develop safe, predictable, and resilient intelligent systems.

Headquartered in San Mateo, California, Duality is a global company with locations across the US, Italy and India.
