Applied Research Engineer – Robotics Data & ML
Turing- Full Time
- Mid-level (3 to 4 years)
The ideal candidate should possess a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Mechanical or Controls engineering, or an equivalent level of experience. Candidates must have at least 8 years of software development experience utilizing Python and a deep-learning software stack, including Pytorch, Tensorflow, and Jax. Experience with robotics and simulation workflows, encompassing reinforcement learning, imitation learning, motion planning, and trajectory optimization is also required. Familiarity with Isaac Sim, Omniverse, USD, MJCF, URDF, and CAD formats is highly desirable.
This role involves working with partner companies to ensure developer and customer success with NVIDIA’s robot learning toolsets, such as perception-in-the-loop reinforcement learning, learning from demonstration via tele-operation, and multi-agent training. The position requires collaborating with research and engineering teams across NVIDIA to enable the next generation of humanoid robots. It also includes running physical applied research experiments in the robotics laboratory, automating workflows, scaling them massively in the cloud, and conducting extensive benchmarking. Finally, the engineer will contribute to the development and deployment of robot policies, both in simulation and for real-world applications.
