Job description
from Nuro careersWho 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
This role sits within Nuro’s Core Infrastructure team and partners deeply across every engineering organization — Autonomy, ML Platform, Simulation, Perception, Behavior, Mapping, BATES, and Release Engineering.
Cloud is the substrate the entire company runs on. How efficiently we use it directly determines how many miles we can drive, how many models we can train, and how many scenarios we can validate per dollar. This is one of the highest-leverage engineering roles at Nuro: the systems, guardrails, and patterns you build will shape how thousands of jobs, pipelines, and services are designed and operated across the company.
About the Work
- Own cloud efficiency end-to-end. Identify the highest-ROI opportunities across storage, compute, data, and ML infrastructure, and deliver systems that capture those gains as durable platform behavior, not one-off cleanups.
