Who We Are 

Nuro exists to better everyday life through robotics. The company’s custom electric autonomous vehicles are designed to bring the things you need—from produce to prescriptions—right to your home. Nuro’s autonomous, goods-focused solution can give you valuable time back and more freedom to do what you love. This convenient, eco-friendly alternative to driving has the potential to make streets safer and cities more livable.

About the Team

On our Behavior team, you'll play a significant role in writing production ready code that enables the Nuro to drive safely, comfortably and efficiently on public roads.

About the Role

In this role you'll research and develop algorithms for reliable and accurate predictions under uncertainties like poor visibility. You will work closely with the Robotics and Machine Learning teams to develop novel algorithms to handle such uncertainty appropriately.

In this impactful role, you will collaborate with a best-in-class team of researchers and engineers to tackle hard problems and help advance the future of robotics to improve everyday lives.

About the Work

  • Research and develop novel algorithms that solve the most challenging and exciting prediction and planning problems, such as uncertainty handling, occlusion handling, prediction of agents through poor visibility.
  • Collaborate closely with engineers in the Behavior team and with the ML applied research team working on agent prediction and planning.
  • Work on projects from end-to-end; ideate, implement, experiment, and iterate.
  • Write robust, production-ready software to make our vehicle safe and predictable in complex driving scenarios.

About You

  • PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Machine Learning, or related field, with 3+ years of relevant industry experience or M.S. with 5+ years of relevant industry experience.
  • Proven ability to collaborate within and across teams.
  • Demonstrated effective communication skills and ability to articulate ideas and timelines to cross-functional groups.
  • Strong C++ programming skills, algorithms and data structures knowledge, and software design experience.
  • You also have at least one of the following:
  • Research experience in one of: motion prediction, behavior planning, probabilistic robotics, planning under uncertainty, computer vision, occlusion handling.
  • Strong math (geometry, analysis, probability), physics (kinematics, dynamics), and analytical skills.
