Senior/Staff Software Engineer, Labeling Platform (Mountain View)

Who We Are Nuro believes self-driving vehicles are the most immediate and profound opportunity for AI to drive positive change in the physical world. Safer streets, more time for what matters, and easier access to the world around us, that’s why we’re building a universal autonomy platform: self-driving for all roads and all rides.Founded in 2016, Nuro is a physical AI company developing Level 4 autonomous driving technology for a wide range of vehicles, use cases, and markets. Powered by the Nuro Driver, our universal autonomy platform enables the global mobility ecosystem to deploy autonomy at scale, from robotaxis and logistics fleets to personal vehicles.With years of real-world deployment experience and a flexible, partner-led business model, Nuro is working toward a future where millions of autonomous vehicles powered by our technology help make everyday life safer, easier, and more connected.Nuro has raised over $2B in capital from Uber, NVIDIA, Google, Softbank, Fidelity, T. Rowe Price, and other leading investorsAbout the RoleNuro takes a machine-learning-first approach to autonomous driving technology. In an ML-first system, the overall system performance depends heavily on the quantity and diversity of its training and evaluation data. The team plays a crucial role in the advancement of autonomous driving systems by ensuring teams have access to high-quality labeled data. This is facilitated by a comprehensive labeling stack featuring a workflow execution framework, supporting infrastructure, and a suite of data annotation tools. Nuro’s autonomy stack utilizes an industry-leading sensor suite. Our tools must handle the efficient processing and annotation of millions of points of sensor data. Our labeling infrastructure supports millions of scenes weekly. The platform team’s mission is to make labeled data accessible for all of our users. The system must be reliable and scalable. This includes everything from request submission to progress tracking, to data dumping and model development. The team closely collaborates with autonomy engineers to ensure our labeled data is high-quality and comprehensive. As Nuro prepares to expand and roll out our service, it will be more important than ever to ensure all issues are captured and quickly triaged.About the WorkBuild highly available, fault-tolerant systems for data annotationProductionize core infrastructure for our state-of-the-art autonomy systemElevate label quality by implementing data-driven metrics and monitoringApply cutting-edge ML research to automate and optimize the data labeling lifecycleAbout YouYou have a B.Sc. or M.Sc. degree and 5+ years of relevant industry experienceYou have experience in designing, building, and operating highly scalable and reliable distributed data systems.You have experience leading cross-team projects and have excellent communication skillsYou are experienced in defining technical visions, creating roadmaps, and setting timelines and prioritization for a team or project.You have strong problem-solving and programming skills in Python, C++ or GoBonus PointsExperience building reliable large scale distributed systems Experience with observability, monitoring and incident managementExperience applying ML research in real world applicationsExperience leading teams, designing and executing team roadmapsAt Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package.
