Hi everyone,
I am heading into my final year of my BTech at a tier 1 college in India and just wrapped up a Physical AI internship at a MNC, working heavily with NVIDIA Isaac Sim and OpenFOAM.
My background is fully focused on robotics and autonomy. My tech stack includes:
- Simulation & Middleware: Isaac Sim, Gazebo, ROS / ROS 2, PX4 Autopilot.
- Perception & Control: VIO, SLAM (RTAB-Map), Nav2, depth perception, and reinforcement learning.
- Hardware: Strong hands-on experience building autonomous drones and rovers for national competitions.
I really enjoy bridging simulation and physical systems, and I want to pursue Physical AI full-time. I’d love some advice from engineers in this space:
- Job Market: How is the entry-level hiring market looking for Physical AI roles right now?
- Global Opportunities: As a new grad based in India, what is the best path to target international roles?
- Skill Gap: What specific frameworks or skills should I double down on during my final year to stand out?
Any candid advice would be hugely appreciated! Thanks
