Joined by the Emerging Tech Hub, a physical space where customers, partners, and academic collaborators can rapidly prototype solutions tailored to their unique challenges, we are seeking a highly skilled Robotics Engineer. The role focuses on developing and testing AI‑driven robotic applications using NVIDIA Isaac Sim. You will design and implement simulation environments to generate and train AI/ML models for robot control and perception, integrating vision, force/torque, and tactile sensor data at the intersection of robotics, AI, and high‑fidelity simulation.
Responsibilities
Simulation Development
Design, implement, and maintain complex, photorealistic, and physically accurate robotic simulation environments within Isaac Sim (built on Omniverse).
Develop custom assets, scripts, and world layouts to represent diverse operational scenarios for robot training.
Sensor Integration & Data Generation
Configure and utilize virtual sensors within Isaac Sim, specifically vision (RGB‑D, LiDAR), force/torque, and tactile sensors, ensuring accurate data output for training.
Develop pipelines for large‑scale, automated synthetic data generation and annotation from the simulation for AI model training.
AI/ML Model Development & Training
Integrate and test AI/ML models (reinforcement learning, imitation learning, deep learning for perception) with the simulated robot system.
Utilize Isaac Sim’s tools (Omniverse Replicator) to manage domain randomization and simulate edge cases to improve model robustness.
Robot Control & Validation
Develop and implement low‑level and high‑level robot control algorithms within the simulation.
Validate the performance of trained AI models in simulation before deployment on physical hardware.
Collaboration & Documentation
Collaborate closely with hardware, software, and AI research teams.
Document development processes, simulation parameters, and AI training methodologies.
Qualifications
Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
Experience: 3+ years of professional experience in robotics software development.
Isaac Sim Expertise: Proven hands‑on experience developing sophisticated simulation environments and synthetic data generation pipelines using NVIDIA Isaac Sim (or comparable platforms such as Gazebo/ROS, V‑REP, or MuJoCo, with a strong willingness to transition).
Programming: Strong proficiency in Python; experience with C++ is a plus.
Robotics Frameworks: Experience with the Robot Operating System (ROS).
Sensor Knowledge: Deep understanding of data processing and calibration for robotic sensors, particularly:
Vision: Camera models, point clouds, computer vision techniques.
Force/Torque: Interpretation of F/T sensor data for compliant control or contact detection.
Tactile: Experience integrating data from various tactile sensing modalities.
AI/ML Fundamentals: Familiarity with machine learning concepts, especially in the context of robot perception and control (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow).
