Jobs at Nuro

Develop collision avoidance and detection software for Nuro’s autonomous driving platform. The role spans perception, planning, and control, with emphasis on high-precision, low-latency systems, rare-event validation, ML-based perception, object tracking, data curation, and compute optimization. Candidates will deploy robotics software and contribute to safety-critical parallel autonomy systems.

Build and ship full-stack applications, backend services, APIs, fleet-monitoring tools, routing systems, and simulation infrastructure for autonomous vehicles. Product Engineers own features end-to-end, collaborate with Product, UX, Operations, and engineering teams, and contribute to scalable software across frontend, backend, cloud, and onboard vehicle systems.

Lead development of robotics-based safety protections for an autonomous driving stack. Own motion-planning software, investigate and resolve real-world autonomy issues, and manage testing and deployment. Lead and grow a technical team while collaborating with AI modeling, evaluation, systems, and operations teams. The role requires hands-on expertise in safety-critical planning, controls, optimization, robotics deployment, and data-driven and model-based methods.

Leads end-to-end regulatory reporting programs, translating legal and compliance obligations into plans, workflows, quality controls, documentation, and timely submissions. Coordinates with Public Trust, Legal, Data Platform, Safety, and Software Operations teams; manages risks, reviews reporting materials, maintains audit trails, and communicates status to technical, legal, and executive stakeholders.

Build and operate reliable, high-performance distributed backend systems for Nuro’s autonomous ride-hailing product. Responsibilities include ride planning, vehicle matching, real-time trip execution, partner API integrations, and telemetry pipelines displaying live vehicle data. The role requires end-to-end product ownership, strong GCP experience, system design expertise, and technical leadership through mentoring and architectural decision-making.

Create and publish social content across major platforms, translate technical concepts into engaging stories, support community management and social listening, track performance metrics, engage creators, and maintain content calendars and publishing workflows. The role requires strong writing, design, video editing, visual storytelling, platform knowledge, organization, and sound judgment. This is a full-time, three-month internship with potential extension.

Build scalable infrastructure-as-code and Kubernetes deployment solutions, automate developer experience and infrastructure reliability, and create observability systems for monitoring production health and performance. Collaborate cross-functionally to align infrastructure solutions with customer needs. The role involves developing and maintaining production systems in public cloud environments, with opportunities to work on distributed applications, cloud networking, software architecture, and security automation.

Leads and develops the AI Platform technical program management team while directly owning complex, cross-functional programs. Drives platform roadmaps, resolves technical and organizational dependencies, coordinates integration and deployment readiness, manages external partners, and improves execution through metrics, planning processes, and automation.

Senior Employment Counsel will lead Nuro’s employment law function, advising on employee lifecycle matters, policies, compliance, litigation, investigations, wage and hour issues, international workforce growth, mobility, immigration, privacy, compensation, and employee relations. The role reports to the Chief Legal Officer and partners closely with People, Operations, and business leaders to support a rapidly growing global workforce.

Develop and test safety-critical embedded C software for multicore automotive microcontrollers, including RTOS components, drivers, middleware, bootloaders, actuator interfaces, and fault management. Integrate autonomy software with vehicle platforms using CAN and Ethernet, perform vehicle bring-up and debugging, maintain verification infrastructure, and work within ISO 26262 processes. Collaborate with systems, safety, hardware, controls, autonomy, OEM, and supplier engineering teams.

Leads Nuro’s Software Operations organization, overseeing AI training and evaluation data, autonomy regression analysis, release validation, operational KPIs, and root-cause investigations. Manages large-scale data-labeling vendors, including quality, throughput, SLAs, budgets, and pricing. Partners with engineering, machine learning, data science, simulation, and product teams to build evaluation datasets, improve autonomy performance, and scale operational processes and teams.

Senior Commercial Counsel will lead complex commercial transactions, including drafting, negotiating, and managing agreements involving technology, IP, SaaS, partnerships, supply chain, and services. The role advises cross-functional teams on legal risk, supports privacy and marketing matters, implements a contract lifecycle management system, improves contracting workflows, and trains business teams. Candidates need substantial technology-sector legal experience, strong negotiation and judgment, and admission to at least one state bar.

Drive system-level safety architecture and requirements for autonomous vehicle hardware and firmware. Develop functional safety and SOTIF concepts, safety mechanisms, fault strategies, and safety requirements. Lead HARA, FMEA, FTA, and DFA analyses; collaborate with hardware, controls, and embedded software teams; support SIL/HIL and on-road validation; analyze test data; and maintain safety-case arguments and residual-risk assessments.

The Software Operations Specialist at Nuro conducts quality control and testing for software in robotics and autonomy, ensures accurate documentation of findings, and collaborates with teams to enhance processes.

Develop and productionize online mapping machine learning models and algorithms for autonomous vehicles. Analyze system performance, improve data, architectures, and evaluation, build training pipelines, and integrate models with centralized autonomy systems. Collaborate with autonomy, infrastructure, and systems teams to deliver robust mapping solutions using camera and LiDAR data in uncertain environments.

Own Workday production support, configuration, testing, integrations, data audits, reporting, and workforce analytics. Build executive KPI dashboards and custom reports, improve reporting through AI-assisted automation, support People Operations workflows, and maintain data integrity. The role also provides backup coverage for onboarding, offboarding, and internal mobility processes while identifying service desk and process improvement opportunities.

Leads cross-functional AI Platform programs supporting autonomous vehicle verification, validation, reliability, and driverless readiness. Owns reliability metrics, execution plans, issue triage, testing priorities, risk assessments, and leadership updates across systems, software, hardware, autonomy, data science, and vehicle operations teams. Translates field failures into engineering priorities and improves troubleshooting, validation, and recovery workflows.

Own perception data operations for autonomous driving, translating ML and engineering requirements into labeling deliverables. Manage vendor allocation, budgets, timelines, quality, throughput, and risk across sensor data pipelines. Partner with perception engineering, product, data engineering, and external labeling providers to ensure reliable, high-quality data delivery. Use SQL, and optionally Python, to analyze operational metrics, identify root causes of quality issues, and improve vendor performance and workflow outcomes.

Own Nuro’s U.S. immigration and global mobility case management, coordinating employees, managers, recruiters, HRBPs, and external counsel.
