Primary Responsibilities:

• USD Asset Creation and Scene Organization
• Transform CAD PLM assets into OpenUSD, ensuring appropriate materials, metadata variants, and structured scene hierarchies.
• Adhere to rigorous USD authoring standards, including composition layers, naming conventions, and asset integrity verification.
• Establish CI/CD pipelines for the validation of USD assets, materials, physics configurations, and Omniverse extensions.
• 3D Performance Optimization
• Enhance large-scale factory scenes through geometry reduction, LODs, texture atlasing, and minimizing draw calls.
• Monitor and fine-tune GPU usage, RTX rendering, and scene complexity for optimal multi-user real-time performance.
• Ensure visual, functional, and physics accuracy within intricate 3D environments.
• Development of Omniverse Extensions
• Create Omniverse Kit extensions using Python and C for simulation controls, user interface tools, parameter editing, analytics overlays, and workflow automation.
• Design scalable tools for designers and engineers to enhance asset ingestion, setup, review, and simulation configuration workflows.
• Manufacturing Data Integration
• Incorporate BOM routing processes, parameter cycles, and other manufacturing datasets into OpenUSD scenes.
• Set up physics, kinematics, part flow, conveyor logic, buffers, and station behaviors to facilitate realistic bottleneck analysis and cycle time evaluations.
• Real-Time Collaboration and Streaming
• Support multi-user collaboration through shared sessions and streaming, utilizing Omniverse Nucleus and associated services.
• Assist with scenario reviews, interactive walkthroughs, and real-time design assessments across multidisciplinary engineering teams.
• KPI Visualization and Analytics
• Develop in-scene visualizations of operational KPIs, including throughput, cycle time, utilization, WIP, and OEE.
• Enable the export of analytical data to external dashboards and enterprise reporting platforms.
• Cross-Functional Teamwork
• Work closely with platform engineers, integration teams, manufacturing subject matter experts, and program managers to ensure alignment with Factory of the Future principles and simulation requirements.
• Offer technical advice on 3D asset standards, workflows, performance optimization, and industry best practices.

Technical Qualifications:

• Extensive experience in CAD to OpenUSD conversion, materials management, and scene structuring.
• Hands-on proficiency with NVIDIA Omniverse, including Kit workflows, Nucleus, and RTX rendering.
• Strong programming skills in Python and/or C for the development of Omniverse extensions.
• In-depth understanding of real-time rendering, 3D optimization methods, physics simulation, and kinematic modeling.
• Familiarity with CAD PLM tools, such as CATIA, Creo, NX, and SolidWorks, along with knowledge of manufacturing datasets like BOM routing and cycle times.
• Understanding of digital twin processes, manufacturing operations, and industrial process modeling.
• Ability to thrive in collaborative, multidisciplinary engineering environments while delivering high-quality 3D assets at scale.
