## Description

In the NVIDIA Isaac team, we build tools that bring the power of the GPU to bear on one of today’s grand challenges: physical AI. We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our team to develop simulation tools built for scientists and companies that are using machine learning to solve the future of robotics!

You will join a team of robotics engineers who work at the intersection of simulation and machine learning. Your goal will be to help build the industry's leading tool for evaluating robot foundation models in simulation.

**Responsibilities:**

- Building simulation frameworks for training and evaluating robot foundation models on top of NVIDIA's Omniverse platform.

- Working as part of a high-paced software engineering team: design/code reviews, testing, continuous integration, deployment.

- Training and evaluating robot foundation models.

- Integrating modern LLM and agentic workflows into simulation and robotics workflows.

- Working with researchers to translate ideas from research into products that can scale to NVIDIA's user base.

- Keeping up to date with the state-of-the-art in robotics research.

**Requirements:**

- MS or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

- 5+ years of full-time experience in robotics and/or simulation.

- Experience in software design and working on a significant software project.

- Proficiency using Python and development experience with deep learning software stacks (Pytorch, Jax, etc.).

**Nice to Have:**

- Publications and/or projects that demonstrate excellence in moving the needle in the field of robotics.

- Robot learning expertise with reinforcement learning and/or imitation learning.

- Physics simulation expertise.

- Experience with tools used in the NVIDIA robotics ecosystem (CUDA, warp, Isaac Lab, ROS).

- Developing and maintaining open-source projects.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
