Seniority: Senior (6+ years in real-time 3D / simulation; Omniverse experience essential)
Team fit: Owns the 3D twin platform; works alongside your existing cloud, AI, and frontend engineers.
About the role: You will build and scale living digital twins of steel fabrication factories in NVIDIA Omniverse, from ingesting factory CAD/BIM and reality-capture data into OpenUSD, to binding live operational data onto the 3D scene, to delivering it to stakeholders through GPU-accelerated browser streaming. This is a portfolio program spanning new-build and existing plants, so you will help design a reusable twin platform, not a one-off model.
Key responsibilities:
- Build and maintain factory digital twins in NVIDIA Omniverse using OpenUSD (composition, layering, schemas).
- Develop Omniverse Kit extensions, custom applications, and UI; configure Nucleus and connectors.
- Build a robust asset pipeline ingesting CAD/BIM (Tekla Structures, Revit, STEP, IFC) and reality-capture point clouds into optimized USD geometry.
- Bind real-time operational and telemetry data (supplied by the integration team) to scene objects so the twin reflects live plant state.
- Set up physics (PhysX) and, where required, material-flow / robotics simulation (Isaac Sim).
- Optimize scenes for real-time performance and multi-user GPU streaming (Omniverse Kit App Streaming) on AWS GPU instances.
- Define reusable twin templates and standards so each additional factory is a replication, not a rebuild.
Required:
- Strong hands-on OpenUSD (USD Python API, composition arcs, custom schemas).
- Production experience with NVIDIA Omniverse (Kit SDK, extensions, Nucleus, connectors).
- Real-time 3D / graphics fundamentals; strong Python and working C++.
- CAD/BIM ingestion and geometry optimization for real-time use.
- Deploying GPU rendering/compute workloads on cloud (AWS G-family / L40S or equivalent).
- Experience delivering an industrial or manufacturing digital twin.
Preferred:
- Isaac Sim and robotics / discrete-event or material-flow simulation.
- Reality-capture / point-cloud workflows (FARO, Leica, NavVis, photogrammetry).
- MDL materials and RTX rendering.
- Familiarity with Tekla Structures / structural steel and industrial equipment models.
- Experience building reusable platforms replicated across multiple sites.
