Software Engineering Intern, Robot Learning Platform - Fall 2025

Today, NVIDIA is tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what's never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world's best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you'll be immersed in a diverse, encouraging environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how we can make a lasting impact on the world. We are seeking a software engineer to join the Isaac Lab team and propel our flagship platform for robot learning to new heights. Our mission is to become the industry's leading tool, redefining how autonomous systems are trained and shaping the future of robotics and AI.

What you'll be doing:

• Develop the next features for our platform, such as perception-in-the-loop reinforcement learning, learning from demonstration via tele-operation, and multi-agent training.
• Automate our workflows and scale them massively in the cloud, while ensuring the highest performance with extensive benchmarking.
• Collaborate with research and engineering teams all across NVIDIA, such as GEAR, to enable the next generation of humanoid robots.
• Engage with the robotics industrial and research communities.

What we need to see:

• Pursuing MS or PhD degree in Computer Science or related field.
• Experience in software development with Python and the deep-learning software stack (Pytorch, Tensorflow, Jax, etc.).
• Experience with robotics and simulation workflows, including reinforcement learning, imitation learning, motion planning, and trajectory optimization.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Prior experience with Isaac Sim, Isaac Lab, Isaac Gym, or Mujoco.
• You have already trained a robot in simulation and deployed the policy sim-to-real.
• Publications in major AI and robotics conferences.

Are you dedicated, upbeat and dynamic with excellent analytical ability? Are you an engineer passionate and highly motivated about solving complex problems? If so, you may be a perfect fit for NVIDIA!

The hourly rate for our interns is 18 USD - 71 USD. Our internship hourly rates are a standard pay determined based on the position and your location, year in school, degree, and experience.
