We are now looking for a system software engineer for the Robotics Team! For over two decades, we have been at the forefront of visual computing—the art and science of computer graphics. Our invention of the GPU, the engine behind modern visual computing, has broadened the field to include video games, movie production, research, and autonomous machines. Our team is dedicated to building an AI robotics platform that will enable the development of the next generation of intelligent robots. NVIDIA's Isaac Robotics Platform integrates high-fidelity visual and physical simulation, a robust development platform, hundreds of optimized algorithms to tackle complex problems in computer vision and artificial intelligence, and a compact yet powerful computational platform to power the brains of intelligent machines. Our team consists of experts from all over the world and dozens of different fields, and together we want to change the way robots are programmed.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Play a key role in building a software platform for robotic humanoids, robotic arms, autonomous mobile robots, quadrupeds, and more.

  • Design, develop, code, test, and debug robotic system software.

  • Contribute to an automated framework to measure critical metrics operating simultaneously on physical hardware and their digital twin.

  • Debug and optimize whole stack software from high level AI applications to kernel drivers.

  • Work closely with dependent teams to drive the project.

  • Responsible for issue management during integration, testing, deployment & quality assurance.

What we need to see from you:

  • BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.

  • 2+ years of experience working in the industry

  • Strong programming skills in C++ and Python.

  • Knowledge of docker containers.

  • Strong Linux skills. 

  • Ability to learn fast and debug miscellaneous system issues.

  • Ability to adapt quickly to varying roles and responsibilities.

  • Strong communication skills and ability to work across teams.

Ways To Stand Out:

  • You have previously worked with robotics and ROS.

  • You have experience in embedded systems.

  • You have experience in CUDA programming.

  • You have experience or familiarity with sensors such as Stereo Camera, IMU, and Lidar.

  • You are or were involved in a software project on a team of five or more people
