Senior/Staff Systems Engineer, Nuro

• Deep understanding of how robotic systems work and ability to leverage this knowledge to build requirements and tests for autonomous vehicles
• Experience creating behavior requirements for SAE L2/L3/L4 systems to operate safely
• Hands on experience ML/Deep Learning
• Ability to read code in C++ and write code in Python
• Strong communication skills - both verbal and written
• 5+ years of technical work experience in a relevant area, of which 3+ years should be in robotics SW
• Hands on coding day-to-day

Desirable

• Develop generalizable, interpretable, computational models for driving behavior that can be used in the evaluation of autonomous vehicles navigating the tradeoff between safety and progress
• Create requirements for the behavior of an autonomous system to operate safely within specific contexts in our ODD
• Implement metrics and behavior models in Python to verify that the autonomous system is meeting these safety requirements
• Propose tests to verify requirements using a combination of synthetic simulation, on-road logs, and closed-course testing
• Quantify coverage of the tests for our ODD, ensuring simulation realism and relevance for deployment
• Work closely with Behavior, Perception, Data Science, and Product while developing acceptance criteria for metrics and tests
• Partner with simulation infrastructure and test integration teams to set up automated verification workflows
