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 investors.
About the Work
- Lead system-level requirements definition, architecture design, integration strategy, and validation in one of the platform areas — autonomy sensors, AV compute, motion control, pose/localization, or end-to-end latency.
- Characterize and quantify system performance for that area: define nominal targets, minimum performance, and acceptance criteria across all ODDs, and defend those numbers with data rather than convention.
- Recommend operating constraints for current and future ODDs on different vehicle platforms — for example trajectory constraints for a given virtual driver, or sensor performance envelopes.
- Define and quantify test coverage for your area, including the realism and relevance of proposed tests across simulation, SIL/HIL, closed course, and on-road.
- Partner with software teams to define interfaces, performance metrics, failure modes, and validation strategies; validate platform modules against ground truth where applicable.
- Collaborate with hardware and EE teams and external vendors on component selection, characterization, and integration; review and recommend changes to supplier requirements and test plans.
- Support V&V by reviewing and suggesting additional tests and implementing test cases in SIL/HIL environments.
- Analyze and interpret test data from simulation, HIL/SIL, and on-road testing to confirm requirements are met, and perform root cause analysis for complex cross-functional issues found during integration and testing, driving them to resolution.
