Senior Robotics Systems Engineer - Sim-to-Real

Responsibilities

• Own DevTech's sim-to-real and real-to-sim function: experiment design, instrumentation, data capture, system identification, model integration, and validation on hardware.
• Build production-quality C++ and Python software for measurement, modeling, simulation, benchmarking, and regression testing.
• Establish quantitative metrics and experiments that isolate the causes of simulation error and show whether a change materially improved the real system.
• Turn evidence from partner robots into reusable workflows and improvements for NVIDIA's robotics and simulation platforms.
• Lead contributors across disciplines without formal authority, create clarity, and remain accountable through integration and sustained use.
• What we need to see
• 12+ years of relevant experience
• A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, Controls, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or a related field—or equivalent experience.
• A consequential technical project you personally built, led, and maintained. Publicly inspectable work is the strongest evidence; a major closed-source production system also counts when its shipped impact and your contribution can be verified without disclosing confidential information.
• End-to-end ownership of a hard-tech system in robotics, aerospace, automotive, industrial automation, scientific instrumentation, or a comparable field—from physical measurement and modeling through working software and validated results.
