Senior Software Engineer - Simulation - CDH - Remote

Mayo Clinic is building an innovative digital twin and simulation program in healthcare. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Omniverse Platform team, you will design and develop real-time 3D simulation environments to enhance clinical workflows and medical research scenarios.

Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and maintain real-time simulation environments within NVIDIA Omniverse, including USD-based scene construction, physics simulation, and rendering pipelines
• Develop custom Omniverse extensions, connectors, and microservices to integrate Mayo Clinic data sources (BIM, IoT, EHR-adjacent operational data) into simulation contexts
• Implement autonomous agent behaviors, crowd simulation, and workflow modeling for clinical and facilities scenarios
• Optimize simulation performance for real-time use cases including mixed reality (MR) and virtual reality (VR) delivery
• Build and maintain pipelines that synchronize physical-world data (sensor feeds, spatial data, operational metrics) with digital twin representations
• Collaborate with infrastructure, data engineering, and enterprise architecture teams to ensure simulation workloads are aligned with Azure cloud infrastructure and Mayo Clinic platform standards
• Integrate Omniverse with enterprise systems including Autodesk Revit, Bentley, Epic (EHR), and IoT/SCADA platforms as applicable
• Partner with clinical, research, and facilities stakeholders to translate real-world requirements into simulation use cases and fidelity specifications
• Support surgical training, procedural simulation, and human factors research through development of anatomically and operationally accurate virtual environments
• Contribute to Mayo Clinic's research publication pipeline through simulation methodology documentation and collaboration with research teams
• Establish and enforce simulation engineering standards, asset management practices, and version control protocols for the Omniverse environment
• Contribute to architecture review processes, ensuring simulation platform design aligns with enterprise security, compliance, and scalability requirements
• Mentor junior engineers and develop internal capability in real-time 3D simulation technologies
