Software Engineer, AI Platform - New Grad

California.

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 who are graduating by July 2026 to join us and be instrumental to one of the following areas: Data Platform, Onboard Systems, ML Infrastructure, Simulation, or Technical Infrastructure teams.

About The Work

Depending on your skill set and areas of interest you will work on some or all of the following:

• 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.
• 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.
• 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 IaaC which provisions and maintains all cloud resources, engineering productivity provides tools such as build and CI/CD to make engineering work more efficient.
