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 behavior team at Nuro develops the Nuro Driver’s prediction and planning systems to enable safe, driverless autonomy. We are looking for strong software engineers to research, develop, and implement technologies for Nuro’s planning stack to empower all rides on all roads. This encompasses building a generalizable and scalable ML planner that can power L4 driving for robotaxi applications as well as serve as an L2 solution for the largest auto manufacturers in the world. Operating domains of the Nuro Driver™ vary from structured surface streets and highways to more unstructured areas such as parking lot driving, parking and multi-point turns in busy traffic situations. You’ll be developing state-of-the-art algorithms to enable the Nuro Driver to safely and reliably plan and navigate complex situations in a human-like manner. You will work on intelligent strategies on how to leverage diverse data to have the biggest impact in our learned behavior stack. If you want to implement cutting-edge robotics and machine learning technologies in a collaborative environment with immediate impact, come and join us! About The Work
- Design and implement novel robotics and machine learning technologies for the Nuro Driver.
- Work cross-functionally with engineers across behavior, perception, mapping, and ML research to advance the state-of-the-art in autonomous driving.
- Implement practical solutions with production-ready software, to deploy new technologies on real vehicle platforms in a safe, performant, and scalable way.
- Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior members of the behavior team
- PhD or Masters Degree in robotics, computer science, mechanical/aerospace engineering, electrical engineering, mathematics, or related field.
- Robotics expertise in areas such as path planning, motion planning, trajectory generation, behavior planning, optimal control.
- Machine learning experience with techniques such as deep learning, reinforcement learning, imitation learning, transformers, and diffusion models.
- Experience in optimizing model performance through efficient processing, visualization, and analysis of large datasets.
- Strong software development skills and Python/C++ coding proficiency.
- Ability to collaborate within and across teams and derive best solutions from cross-functional interactions.
- Desire to work at the edge of research and development, bringing algorithms from research into production.
- Bonus: hands-on experience developing software for safety-critical systems, distributed training, or inference optimization.
