Full description
We are looking for an AI Engineer for a two-year contract position to develop a Generative Agent-Based Modelling (GABM) platform for large-scale simulation of human behaviour and interactions in complex environments at ST Engineering, AI/Robotics Strategic Technology Centre (AI.R STC). The platform combines large language models, vision-language models, generative world models, AI-generated 3D content, multi-agent systems and 3D simulation to support applications such as public safety, crowd management, emergency response and urban planning.
You will work closely with AI researchers, simulation engineers and domain experts to translate research ideas into scalable, reliable prototypes and operational demonstrations.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and implement autonomous agents powered by large language models, including perception, memory, reasoning, planning, decision-making and action execution.
- Develop multi-agent interaction and coordination mechanisms for realistic individual and group behaviours.
- Build and optimise large-scale simulations involving thousands of concurrent agents.
- Integrate generative agents with 3D simulation environments such as Unreal Engine 5, including navigation, animation, environment perception and event handling.
- Develop AIGC pipelines for generating and adapting simulation-ready 3D characters, objects, scenes and environments from text, image or other multimodal inputs.
- Explore and integrate generative world models for environment creation, scenario generation, state prediction and interactive simulation.
- Apply vision-language models to visual perception, scene understanding, visual grounding, navigation and context-aware interaction between agents and their environment.
- Develop interfaces and data pipelines connecting AI services, simulation engines and external systems using Python, C++ and APIs or messaging frameworks.
- Create agent profiles and behaviour models from scenario requirements, real-world data and domain knowledge.
- Evaluate agent realism, behavioural diversity, scalability, latency and simulation performance using quantitative and qualitative methods.
- Conduct experiments, benchmark alternative models and algorithms, and translate research findings into working systems.
- Collaborate with internal teams, universities and external partners on system integration, demonstrations, technical documentation and project deliverables.
- Contribute to software architecture, code quality, testing, deployment and technical roadmap development.
Requirements
- Master's or PhD degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Game Technology or a related field.
- Strong programming skills in Python; experience with C++ is an advantage.
