[Remote] Physical AI Engineer – Simulation & Synthetic Data

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. TD SYNNEX Corporation is building real‑world Physical AI systems, and they are seeking a Physical AI Engineer – Simulation & Synthetic Data to work hands-on with NVIDIA Omniverse and synthetic data. The role involves building simulation environments, training AI agents, and ensuring reliable performance on physical robotic systems.

Responsibilities

• Build high‑fidelity, physics‑based simulation environments in NVIDIA Omniverse / Isaac Sim for training and evaluating robotic agents
• Design and run reinforcement learning and imitation learning pipelines using simulation‑generated and synthetic data
• Train and tune policies for control, planning, and decision‑making, emphasizing robustness and sim‑to‑real performance
• Integrate foundation models (GPT‑class, Claude / Opus, multimodal models) to support reasoning, task decomposition, or human‑in‑the‑loop learning
• Drive simulation‑to‑real transfer, ensuring learned behaviors perform reliably on physical robotic systems
• Collaborate with robotics, controls, and perception engineers to deploy learning‑based systems end to end

Skills

• 5–8+ years of experience in robotics, reinforcement learning, simulation, or applied machine learning
• Strong hands‑on experience with reinforcement learning, imitation learning, or learning‑based control
• Proven experience building and training agents in simulation environments (synthetic data, domain randomization, curriculum learning)
• Experience working in the NVIDIA ecosystem (Omniverse, Isaac Sim, USD pipelines strongly preferred)
• Experience applying or integrating foundation models (e.g., GPT‑based or Claude / Opus‑style models) into robotics or decision‑making workflows
• Strong Python skills; ability to build and scale training pipelines
• Builder mindset with a track record of moving learning systems from experiment to deployment
• Must have hands-on experience training robotic agents or systems (in simulation and/or real-world environments)
• Model‑free or model‑based RL at scale
• Sim‑to‑real transfer techniques (domain randomization, system ID, hybrid control)
• Physics engines, real‑time systems, or robotics middleware
• Experience operationalizing learned policies on physical robots
