You will leverage ROS2, simulation tools, and AI techniques to drive demonstrations and client value, with travel as needed. Bachelor's degree and 3+ years of relevant experience required.

Qualifications

• Minimum of 3 years of relevant experience in robotics, consulting, or software projects with a strong technical focus.
• Broad hands-on experience with modern robotics stacks: ROS2, motion planning, sensor fusion, and simulation environments (Isaac Sim, Isaac Lab, MuJoCo, Gazebo).
• Hands-on experience with Physical AI and foundation models: VLA architectures, robot policy fine-tuning, imitation learning, sim-to-real transfer pipelines.
• Experience with synthetic data generation and world models (NVIDIA Cosmos, Genesis, MuJoCo MJX) for scalable robot training.
• Proficient in Python and C++ with Git and CI/CD; capable of architecture-based development.
• Experience in technical project roles such as architect, lead engineer, or integrative tech generalist.
• Exposure to edge AI deployment for robotics: NVIDIA Jetson, TensorRT, real-time control at 30–100 Hz.
• Bachelor's degree in robotics, CS or related or equivalent work experience.

Responsibilities

• Technical leadership of robotics innovation projects, including architecture design, implementation, and integration for global industrial clients.
• Develop scalable Physical AI architectures focusing on autonomy, VLA model integration, real-time systems, and scalable simulation.
• Manage interdisciplinary delivery teams (3–10 people) across PoC, pilot, and production rollout phases.
• Execute technology benchmarks, venture screenings, and establish robust demo/test setups.
• Coordinate with clients, partners, and Accenture industry units from roadmap creation to productive implementation.

We Are:

Do you believe that AI and robotics will redefine the way we work and live? Then help shape the future with us. As part of Accenture’s ambition “To reinvent industries,” the Next Gen Robotics Team operates at the forefront as a spearhead for groundbreaking robotics solutions. We combine Accenture’s global strength and reach with the latest breakthroughs in Physical AI and robotics—with a focus on the intersection of technology, industry, and society.

You Are:

In global and highly ambitious team, you will develop scalable robotics solutions—from AMRs and autonomous drones to quadrupedal robots, humanoid systems, and AI-powered service platforms. Our goal: to make real industrial applications more efficient, safer, more economical—and smarter.

The Work:

• Technical leadership of robotics innovation projects, including architecture design, implementation, and integration for global industrial clients.
• Development of scalable Physical AI architectures with a focus on autonomy, VLA model integration, real-time systems, and scalable simulation using NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Isaac Lab, and Cosmos world models.
• Management of interdisciplinary delivery teams (3–10 people) across PoC, pilot, and production rollout phases.
• Execution of technology benchmarks, venture screenings, and establishment of robust demo and test setups.
• Close coordination with clients, partners, and Accenture industry units—from roadmap creation to productive implementation.
• Active contribution to the Next-Gen Robotics strategy: tech roadmaps, partner development, and internal enablement initiatives.

Travel may be required for this role. The amount of travel will vary from 0% to 100% depending on business need and client requirements.

Here’s What You Need:

• Minimum of 3 years of relevant experience in robotics, consulting, or software projects with a strong technical focus.
• Minimum of 3 years of experience Solid experience with modern robotics stacks: ROS2, motion planning, sensor fusion, and simulation environments (Isaac Sim 6.0, Isaac Lab 3.0, MuJoCo, Gazebo).
• Minimum of 3 years of experience Hands-on experience with Physical AI and foundation model technologies: working knowledge of VLA architectures (e.g., NVIDIA Isaac GR00T, π0, OpenVLA), robot policy fine-tuning, imitation learning, and sim-to-real transfer pipelines.
• Minimum of 3 years of experience Experience with synthetic data generation and world models (NVIDIA Cosmos, Genesis, MuJoCo MJX) for scalable robot training at scale.
• Minimum of 3 years of experience Proficient in software development with Python and C++—including clean code practices, Git, CI/CD, and architecture-based development.
• Minimum of 3 years of experience You have taken responsibility in technical project roles—e.g., as an architect, lead engineer, or integrative tech generalist in interdisciplinary teams.
• Minimum of 2 years of experience Exposure to edge AI deployment for robotics: NVIDIA Jetson / Isaac platform, TensorRT inference optimization, and real-time control at 30–100 Hz.
• Bachelor's degree in robotics, computer science (or related) or equivalent (minimum 12 years) work experience. (If Associate’s Degree, must have minimum 6 years work experience)
