## About the role

We're looking for a Simulation Engineer to own and expand our NVIDIA Isaac Sim and Omniverse simulation infrastructure. You'll build the digital twin environments, sim assets, and CI/CD pipelines that our autonomy team relies on daily. You will help achieve the vision in which every robot behavior we develop is prototyped, tested, and validated in simulation before it runs on hardware.

## What they're looking for

- BS, MS, or PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field
- 3+ years of professional experience in robotics simulation, digital twin development, or physics-based simulation environments
- Strong hands-on experience with NVIDIA Isaac Sim and/or NVIDIA Omniverse
- Working knowledge of OpenUSD (Universal Scene Description): authoring, composition, referencing, flattening, and debugging USD stage hierarchies
- Proficiency in Python, comfortable writing simulation tooling, test harnesses, and automation scripts
- Experience with at least one physics engine: PhysX, MuJoCo, Bullet, or Drake
