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: Onboard Systems, Performance, and Devices Platform.<ul><li>Onboard Systems: Our onboard system team’s software engineers provide a reliable and high-performance platform that allows our autonomy teams to integrate their autonomy software and algorithms that work across various self-driving platforms. This work requires close collaboration with our software teams, hardware teams, and systems/safety team to make sure new software and hardware work together safely and reliably, and resolve onboard error and performance problems.</li><li>Performance: Our Performance team optimizes the performance of Nuro’s AV software, ensuring our vehicles can react quickly and safely to the world around them. The team builds systems and tools for continuous performance analysis, and drives latency reduction and resource efficiency efforts to ensure the autonomy teams can implement an autonomy stack that is efficient and performant for current and future generations of the Nuro Driver.</li><li>Devices Platform: The Devices Platform team’s mandate is to lay the foundation of Nuro’s onboard software for our sensor and compute platform, including device drivers, inter-device protocols and pipelines, and device runtime APIs. We are creating the hardware-agnostic platform to be used by the perception and autonomy SW stack, and to realize the full potential of our sensor and compute HW in reliability, quality, and performance. This team is also responsible for working with internal stakeholders and external suppliers to define, evaluate, and integrate the next-generation HW platform for Nuro’s products and to build the necessary tooling to assist continuous testing and validation.</li></ul>About You You have deep expertise and prior experience in some or many of the following areas:<ul><li>5+ 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.</li><li>Must have strong C++ skills</li><li>You have experience in one or more of the following areas: large-scale distributed systems; computer architecture and operating systems; advanced algorithms using C++ and Python; highly-concurrent, multi-processor, and multi-threaded environments; software performance tuning and optimization;profiling and tracing tools and infrastructure (perf, eBPF, Perfetto, pprof, NVIDIA Nsight Systems/Compute); robotics software frameworks; robotics hardware components (including sensors, embedded platforms, etc); and different compute modalities (x86, ARM, GPU, FPGA, etc)</li><li>You have strong problem-solving and programming skills.</li></ul>At Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package.

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.

We believe that great technology should benefit everyone. The team at Nuro is accelerating a future where robots make life easier and help us connect to the people and things we love. Together, we're pushing the boundaries of robotics to improve human life.
Dave Ferguson and Jiajun Zhu have devoted their careers to robotics and machine learning, most recently as Principal Engineers at Google's self-driving car project (now Waymo). They founded Nuro in 2016 to harness the power of robotics and artificial intelligence to solve new challenges at a global scale.
Our vehicle is a fully autonomous, on-road vehicle designed to transport goods quickly, safely, and affordably.
With no driver or passengers to worry about, our vehicle has been engineered from the ground up to keep what's outside even safer than what's inside.
Efficient, electric, and fully autonomous, it delivers life's needs at a price anyone can afford.
