Job description

Who We Are
Nuro is a self-driving technology company on a mission to make autonomy accessible to all. Founded in 2016, Nuro is building the world’s most scalable driver, combining cutting‑edge AI with automotive‑grade hardware. Nuro licenses its core technology, the Nuro Driver™, to support a wide range of applications, from robotaxis and commercial fleets to personally owned vehicles. With technology proven over years of self‑driving deployments, Nuro gives the automakers and mobility platforms a clear path to AVs at commercial scale, empowering a safer, richer, and more connected future.

About The Role

Our software team is growing, and we are looking for talented engineers to join us and be instrumental to one of the following areas: Data Platform, Simulation, and Technical Infrastructure.

• Data Platform: The Data Platform serves as a comprehensive management system for Nuro AI Driver's data, labels, and metrics, facilitating seamless access functionality. The team focuses on data annotation across various domains, including 2D/3D perception, mapping, behavior trajectory, and language/text. It also handles data ingestion and mining, employing methods such as heuristics and embedding search. Additionally, the platform supports the autonomy evaluation infrastructure by providing detailed introspection.
• Simulation: The Simulation team builds the simulator that allows us to develop and test our autonomous driving technology in a virtual setting. We work on the core simulator and simulation frameworks, sensor simulation, scenario generation, and solutions that combine real‑world data with synthetic techniques to push the boundaries of what can be simulated, collaborating closely with teams across Autonomy and AI Platform to allow us to simulate realistically and reliably at scale.
• Technical Infrastructure: this group owns few fundamental services for entire engineering organizations: generic compute platform to host mission‑critical workflows such as data processing and simulation, storage management service which manages hundreds of PB of data, cloud infrastructure serves as IaC which provisions and maintains all cloud resources, engineering productivity provides tools such as build and CI/CD to make engineering work more efficient.

About You

You have deep expertise and prior experience in some or many of the following areas:

• 2+ years of relevant industry experience in addition to a Bachelor’s Degree, Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or related field.
• Must have strong programming skills in Python, C++ or Go
• You have experience in one or more of the following areas: large‑scale distributed systems; data storage and processing systems; modern microservice architecture; machine learning, multithreading; x86 architecture; and software performance tuning and optimization, robotics software frameworks, different compute modalities (CPU, GPU, FPGA) etc.

At Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package. For this position, the reasonably expected pay range is between $160,360 and $240,540 for the different levels at which this job has been scoped.
