About the Role
We're looking for a Robotics Simulation Engineer to build and deploy physics-accurate simulation environments for autonomous systems. You'll work on creating digital twins, sim-to-real validation pipelines, and training environments that bridge virtual and physical robotics.
What You'll Do
- Design and develop physics-based simulation environments using Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or similar platforms
- Build sim-to-real transfer pipelines for robotics applications
- Create digital twin representations of physical environments and robotic systems
- Implement sensor simulation (LiDAR, cameras, IMU, radar) with realistic noise models
- Develop and validate robot behaviors in simulation before real-world deployment
- Integrate simulation environments with cloud and edge computing infrastructure
- Optimize simulation performance for real-time feedback and low-latency operations
- Build training scenarios and challenge modules for autonomous systems
- Work with NVIDIA Omniverse for collaborative 3D workflows
- Collaborate with robotics engineers to ensure sim-to-real accuracy
What We're Looking For
Required:
- Strong experience with robotics simulation platforms (Isaac Sim, Gazebo, Webots, or similar)
- Proficiency in Python and C++ for simulation development
- Experience with physics engines (PhysX, Bullet, ODE)
- Knowledge of ROS/ROS2 for robotics integration
- Understanding of sensor modeling and simulation
- Experience with 3D modeling tools (Blender, Maya, or similar)
- Familiarity with USD (Universal Scene Description) format
- Strong problem-solving and optimization skills
Preferred:
- Experience with NVIDIA Isaac Sim and Omniverse
- Knowledge of reinforcement learning and sim-to-real transfer
- Experience with AWS cloud infrastructure and edge computing
- Understanding of SLAM, navigation, and path planning
- Experience with digital twin development
- Background in computer graphics or game engines (Unity, Unreal)
- Experience with multi-robot simulation scenarios
Why Join Helpforce
- Work on cutting-edge simulation-first robotics projects
- Own your work from concept to deployment
- Collaborate with a global, remote-friendly team
- Competitive salary based on experience
- Growth opportunities in robotics and AI
Skills Required
Isaac Sim, Python, C++, ROS/ROS2, Physics Engines, NVIDIA Omniverse, Digital Twin, Sensor Simulation, USD Format
