Job Description:

Your Work Shapes the World at Caterpillar Inc.

When you join Caterpillar, you're joining a global team who cares not just about the work we do – but also about each other. We are the makers, problem solvers, and future world builders who are creating stronger, more sustainable communities. We don't just talk about progress and innovation here – we make it happen, with our customers, where we work and live. Together, we are building a better world, so we can all enjoy living in it.

Job Summary:

At Caterpillar, technology has a purpose to solve our customers' toughest challenges. Construction autonomy and Physical AI require trusted digital twins, high-fidelity simulation, scalable GPU computing, intelligent automation, and rigorous validation.

This Principal Engineer role is a hands-on technical leadership position responsible for architecture, critical implementation, engineering standards, cross-team alignment, and mentoring. Lead the architecture and development of the next-generation digital twin and simulation software stack, connecting machine models, environments, physics, operational data, mapping, rendering, and robotics software through reusable, interoperable platform services.

What You Will Do

Define the end-to-end digital twin and simulation reference architecture.
Build reusable software for machines, terrain, sites, sensors, behaviors, scenarios, and visualization.
Lead OpenUSD-based asset and scene pipelines, including layers, references, payloads, variants, schemas, materials, and metadata.
Develop NVIDIA Omniverse Kit extensions and integrate CAD, GIS, terrain, machine, sensor, and operational data.
Establish APIs and data contracts across simulation, robotics, AI, controls, and enterprise platforms.
Lead rendering, scene management, mapping, and physically based visualization capabilities.
Define standards for fidelity, determinism, performance, interoperability, model versioning, and reuse.
Enable containerized simulation workloads across local, on-premises, and CoreWeave GPU environments.
Own a major technical capability across multiple teams and programs, leading architecture reviews, technical investigations, and design decisions, and translating ambiguous business and engineering problems into scalable architectures and production software that balance research and prototyping with secure, maintainable delivery.
Mentor senior and developing engineers, support technical hiring and onboarding, and partner across simulation, robotics, autonomy, controls, AI, data, cloud, product, and customer-facing organizations.

Top Candidates will Have:

Seven or more years of hands-on backend software development and five or more years of frontend or visualization development.
Advanced software engineering experience using Python and one or more of C++, C#, Java, Go, or Node.js.
Strong API and backend architecture experience, including REST, GraphQL, event-driven interfaces, SQL, NoSQL, object storage, distributed systems, automated testing, CI/CD, source control, and observability.
Experience with cloud platforms and cloud-native architectures, including Docker and Kubernetes.
Expertise with NVIDIA Omniverse, Omniverse Kit SDK, OpenUSD, RTX rendering, and SimReady asset concepts.
Experience with NVIDIA Isaac Sim and integration of robotics simulation into digital twin environments.
Experience with NVIDIA Newton or comparable GPU-accelerated physics engines for terrain, contact, rigid-body, and machine interaction modeling.
Experience with Unreal Engine, Unity, or equivalent real-time 3D platforms.
Experience with GIS and mapping technologies such as Cesium, Mapbox, OpenLayers, terrain meshes, and coordinate reference systems.
Experience with modern web technologies such as TypeScript, React, Next.js, Angular, HTML, and CSS.
Experience deploying GPU simulation and rendering workloads using CoreWeave, Kubernetes, Docker, and NVIDIA Container Toolkit.
Experience defining simulation architecture across multiple products or engineering teams, with a demonstrated ability to lead architecture and technical delivery across multiple teams.
Experience connecting simulation systems with machine, robotics, autonomy, or operational data, and with automated map-to-OpenUSD or site-to-simulation pipelines.
Strong communication, mentoring, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills, plus experience using AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, or Cursor.
Preferred technology stack: OpenUSD, NVIDIA Omniverse, Omniverse Kit, Isaac Sim, Newton, RTX, CUDA, Cesium, Python, C++, TypeScript, Docker, Kubernetes, and CoreWeave.
