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 Team The Robotics Reliability Engineering (RRE) team at Nuro is dedicated to ensuring the reliability and resilience of the software and systems that power our autonomous vehicle fleet. RRE acts as the frontline incident response team for complex technical issues that arise during fleet operations—especially those that block on-road missions or impact fleet-wide performance. When operational teams encounter problems they can’t resolve, RRE steps in to triage, diagnose, and coordinate the resolution, often collaborating with both hardware and software engineering groups.About the Role As a Senior Reliability Engineer, you'll be the technical point of contact (POC) for diagnosing and resolving on-site issues. You'll work directly with our robotic systems, acting as the first line of defense for a wide range of technical challenges, from system-level glitches to software and connectivity problems.Your role goes beyond just fixing things. We're looking for someone who can proactively identify systemic weaknesses and architect long-term solutions. You'll lead projects from end to end, driving improvements through automation, process enhancements, and cross-functional collaboration. A key part of the role will be to develop clear data visualizations that help the entire team understand problem trends and make data-driven decisions.Additionally, you'll serve as a technical mentor for our team, sharing your knowledge to improve our collective problem-solving capabilities and building foundational infrastructure.About the Work<ul><li>Support our operations team as they carry out autonomous vehicle testing and customer facing missions, ensuring our software and hardware are operating properly.</li><li>Analyze software issues for contributing factors, themes, and corrective actions.

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.
