Role overview
At NVIDIA, we build the simulation technologies powering the future of robotics, industrial AI, autonomous systems, and digital twins.
NVIDIA Omniverse simulation technologies are used to power reinforcement learning systems, train robots, simulate factories and warehouses, and enable physically accurate digital twins.
As simulation becomes foundational to robotics and industrial automation, the demands on physical fidelity are rapidly increasing.

Company and context
- Mentor engineers and contribute technical leadership across the organization! What we need to see:
- A track record of building or leading simulation software used in production engineering, robotics, industrial machinery, automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, or adjacent domains.
- 15+ years of relevant industry experience, demonstrating sustained impact in simulation development, system design, or engineering software at scale.
- Master’s or PhD degree in a relevant discipline (e.g., mechanical engineering, robotics, computer science, applied mathematics, or physics), or equivalent depth of expertise through professional experience
- Deep knowledge in several of the following areas: multibody dynamics, constrained systems, contact and friction, articulations, flexible bodies, cable or wire simulation, deformables, FEM, solver design, numerical integration, stiffness handling, or model reduction.
- Experience validating simulators against physical systems, including some combination of test correlation, calibration, HIL/SIL workflows, or controller co-simulation.
- Working fluency in robotics-system integration and mechanical-engineering toolchains, including ROS 2, Simulink, Simscape, and model pipelines based on CAD, URDF, MJCF, or OpenU
