Simular is seeking an engineer to work on the control layer, translating AI model intent into precise actions on computers. The role involves working on low-level computer control, UI element detection, and contributing to feedback loops for reliable execution across multiple operating systems.
Responsibilities:
- Work on the low-level computer control stack: mouse/keyboard injection, screen capture, coordinate mapping, input simulation
- Implement UI element detection using accessibility APIs (AXUIElement, UI Automation), DOM/a11y trees, and visual grounding
- Help build the abstraction layer that lets our agent operate across OS platforms and application types
- Tackle reliability problems: element targeting under UI changes, window occlusion, resolution scaling, cross-app focus management
- Contribute to feedback loops: how does the agent know its action worked? How does it recover when something unexpected happens?
- Work closely with the model and planning team on the interface between intent and execution
