Developer Advocate – Robotics and Physical AI

NVIDIA’s accelerated computing ecosystem thrives on deep engagement with developers. We offer a wide range of libraries, tools, APIs, and frameworks to help developers achieve faster results and optimize energy consumption. We are looking for a Developer Advocate on Physical AI and Robotics with a passion for Robotics, Embedded devices, and AI. This role is pivotal in helping developers craft the next generation of intelligent robots. Your responsibilities will include crafting compelling demos, sharing code and how-to guides, and connecting with the developer community on a deeper level.

We aim to expand the developer network by building applications on NVIDIA’s platform, including Isaac Sim, Isaac Lab, Newton, and MJWarp. The platform uses NVIDIA and other ecosystem tools. We need a candidate who understands developers and collaborates with marketing to launch innovative technology.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Crafting engaging, developer-focused materials such as demos, blogs, presentations, and videos.

• Connecting with developers, researchers, and students at both online and in-person events.

• Developing and deploying the complete robotics lifecycle, from simulation to validation and final deployment on physical platforms using NVIDIA GPUs.

• Combining robotics applications with Generative AI, using widely-adopted tools and frameworks.

• Defining strategic roadmaps for content and events, providing mentorship and ensuring successful outcomes across different organizations.

• Collaborating with engineering, product management, and marketing teams to identify high-impact developer needs and build technical solutions.

What We Need To See:

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical area (or equivalent experience).

• 8+ years of professional experience in Software Engineering, Application Engineering, Robotics, or embedded devices.

• Proven experience developing applications for various robotic platforms including humanoids, wheeled robots, quadrupeds, and UAVs.

• Established experience in communicating complex technical subjects to engineers and producing developer-focused content.

• Hands-on experience with tools and frameworks such as ROS, OpenCV, NVIDIA JetPack, MuJoCo Warp, Newton, Isaac Sim, and PyTorch.

• Solid knowledge or hands-on experience with contemporary AI, particularly Generative AI, to tackle challenges in robotics using agentic AI workflow.

• A proactive, adaptable, and collaborative teammate. Passionate about developing new technologies in a dynamic environment with the latest technology.

• Understanding of evangelism and how to effectively engage with developer communities.

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd:

• Experience with Generative AI tools and frameworks used in the Physical AI community.

• Skilled in crafting technical content, like blog posts, tutorial videos with a strong technical background including research publications.

• Active involvement in developer communities. Experience in running events, webinars, hackathons, or peer-reviewed submissions is a plus.

• Self-motivated individual capable of prioritizing tasks according to mission goals.

• Strong communication abilities in front of large audiences. The capability to tell stories and write succinctly while explaining complex ideas clearly is highly valued.
