Role
Who you are
- Strategic: You know the value and priority level for every product you are working on and every feature you propose - both to your customer, and to the business overall
- Structured Thinker: You create structure and extract principles for the messiest systems. You surface the most crucial unanswered questions and drive to answers
- Data-Driven: You can extract important insights from whatever data is available, even if it is sparse or imperfect. You highlight valuable data we don’t have and how to collect it
- Customer-Driven: You develop deep empathy for your customer, fully internalize their needs, and have a strong intuition about the best ways to meet them
- Technically Fluent: You have experience building tools with engineers and can be the technical representative in conversations without engineers
- Trusted Partner: You know what is blocking your engineers, and how you can make their lives easier. Engineers instinctively turn to you for guidance and clarity
- Self-Directed: You proactively sort out the most important thing to work on. You take accountability for your projects, and don’t need to be told how to execute on them
- Influential Communicator: You are skilled at collecting input from, and presenting insights to both technical and non-technical audiences
What the job involves
- One of the responsibilities of the Product Team is to build products that supercharge our operations to safely, efficiently, and effectively power our Autonomous Vehicles
- As a Product Manager on the team, you will be responsible for driving high-impact initiatives, working closely with Operations, Design, Engineering, Strategy, Business Development, and Legal
- Empathize with Operators. You are focused on the users, Operators, and invest the time to deeply understand their various workflows
- Hands-on learning - rolling up your sleeves and giving it a try yourself - energizes you
- Inform Operations roadmap. You know what it takes to operate a safe and efficient commercial service
- Given your vision of the big picture, you prioritize and define the products needed to make it a reality
- Build tools to scale. You lead the team to define, design, and develop innovative solutions that give our Operations Team “superpowers”
- Your step-change products directly influence the number of operators we need to operate each vehicle
- Be a force multiplier. You define and communicate product goals, requirements, and constraints
- You surface problems and dig-in to fully understand the root cause. You source and synthesize feedback from internal experts and experiments, which is then incorporated in the solution
- You define success, measure progress, and have creative tactics to push the pace
Our take
Nuro offers custom-built autonomous vehicles for the delivery of physical goods, rather than people. Its vehicles have a distinctive, futuristic, design that has not only made the vehicles noticeable from a marketing point of view, but, has also made its vehicles stand out to other road users, improving safety.
Nuro is an exciting addition to the autonomous vehicle landscape. Without a passenger inside the vehicle, it has been able to sidestep some of the safety issues that have plagued other autonomous vehicle brands. Additionally, the company has landed several high-profile partners, including Uber, Walmart, Chipotle, and Kroger.
With home deliveries at an all-time high, many companies are looking for ways to get goods to customers’ homes as fast as possible. Low-cost, efficient services such as Nuro's offering are becoming increasingly attractive. Following Series E funding, the company is focusing on growing new commercial partnerships and scaling its technology.
