Project Overview
A Robotics company is investing heavily in cloud-based simulation using NVIDIA Isaac Sim, making it a core part of their product offering.
This role sits at the forefront of that initiative, leading the initial delivery and build-out of a scalable simulation environment, including DevOps, infrastructure, and integration with real-world robotic systems.
You will take ownership of a standalone simulation programme, building robust foundations that will later be transitioned into the core engineering team.
Skills & Responsibilities
- Lead the setup and maintenance of Isaac Sim in cloud environments, including Dockerised, GPU-enabled, and headless deployments.
- Integrate Isaac Sim with ROS 1 and ROS 2, including bridge configuration and simulation time synchronisation.
- Develop and maintain robot models and simulation environments using USD formats.
- Troubleshoot and optimise simulation performance across physics, rendering, and sensor pipelines.
- Build and manage supporting infrastructure for map loading, robot resets, and full simulation instance management.
- Collaborate closely with robotics engineers to ensure alignment between simulation and real-world robot behaviour.
- Contribute to DevOps practices and automation for scalable, production-ready simulation environments.
- Tech Stack: NVIDIA Isaac Sim (Omniverse), ROS1 / ROS2, Docker, Linux, GPU, Python, C++
