Senior Software Engineer, Spatial Intelligence and Foundation Models

What you'll do

• Design and implement novel algorithms for SLAM, structure-from-motion, optical flow, and object reconstruction.
• Develop robust perception, mapping, and reasoning systems for robots, simulations, and large-scale data pipelines.
• Combine classical multi-view geometry and optimization with modern deep learning approaches to advance geometric computer vision.
• Train and evaluate vision-language models on spatial reasoning skills relevant to robotics.
• Integrate and validate applied research efforts onto NVIDIA's advanced robotics platforms.
• Develop features for physical robots and at-scale simulations in collaboration with cross-functional teams.
• Contribute to open source software, prototypes, patents, and publications to foster innovation.

What we're looking for

• Master's or PhD degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 8+ years of experience working on computer vision, robotics, or deep learning technologies.
• Strong foundation in 3D geometric computer vision including multi-view geometry, SLAM, and structure-from-motion.
• Proficiency in Python and/or C++ programming languages.
• Experience with Deep Learning frameworks such as PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow.
• Experience training and evaluating deep learning models for perception tasks and familiarity with vision-language models.
• Proficiency working with AI coding agents and agentic workflows to accelerate development and testing.
• Strong communication, organizational, and interpersonal skills.
