Nuro
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
The Autonomy Evaluation team works closely with the Autonomy ML teams on one of the main challenges in autonomous driving: measuring and improving the quality of NuroDriver, our autonomous driving software. We develop evaluation systems that assess the safety, compliance, and service quality of NuroDriver to identify ways we can improve the performance of our ML and robotics systems.
This role can have any of the following forms (or the combination of any subset): High-output Generalist
working at the interface of infrastructure and robotics. Such a role would develop Robotics domain knowledge over time to eventually also perform the functions below. Robotics Expert
working closely with the ML teams to develop targeted evaluation algorithms powered by classical robotics (e.g. 3D geometry or prediction algorithms), ML techniques (e.g. reward modeling), or statistical methods (e.g. hypothesis testing). About the Work
Design and deploy algorithms to measure the performance of the ML models that power our self-driving car's behavior, using robotics, physics, and machine learning. Work cross-functionally with ML and Infrastructure engineers to set the technical roadmap that will continuously improve and unify the evaluation frameworks across Nuro. Leverage the evaluation algorithms and frameworks our team builds to identify ways to improve the performance of NuroDriver and then drive the technical execution of such improvements. About You
BS in Computer Science, Robotics, Statistics, Physics, Math or another quantitative area. 4 years of industry experience and demonstrated Python proficiency through past work. Proven ability to lead cross-functional technical projects from design to completion. Bonus Points
Experience developing evaluation frameworks, machine learning models, or robotics systems.
At Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package. For this position, the reasonably expected base pay range is between $183,825 and $275,975 for the level at which this job has been scoped. Your base pay will depend on several factors, including your experience, qualifications, education, location, and skills. In the event that you are considered for a different level, a higher or lower pay range would apply. This position is also eligible for an annual performance bonus, equity, and a competitive benefits package.
At Nuro, we celebrate differences and are committed to a diverse workplace that fosters inclusion and psychological safety for all employees. Nuro is proud to be an equal opportunity employer and expressly prohibits any form of workplace discrimination based on race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, age, genetic information, disability, veteran status, or any other legally protected characteristics.
