Job description

Who 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

Every vehicle that drives itself on a public road starts with a decision someone made about a single annotation. At Nuro, we take that seriously — and we're looking for someone who does too.

ML Operations is where data becomes decisions. We sit at the intersection of Autonomy Engineering and the globally distributed annotation teams who label the world our vehicles need to understand. We are builders, diagnosticians, and systems thinkers who care deeply about the end product - because we know that what we fix here shows up on the road. 

This team is collaborative and technically rigorous. We work closely with engineering and we hold each other to a high standard, but we also invest in getting things right together. Here is what the work actually looks like day-to-day: 

If that sounds like the kind of problem-solving that lights you up, we would love to talk.

About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to own something that genuinely matters. You will co-own a portfolio of active labeling pipelines alongside senior leadership with real authority to set the quality standard, measure against it, and close the gaps. Not to report on pipelines. To make them better.

The work connects directly to Nuro's mission. A single systematic flaw in annotation can propagate silently through training and surface as a safety regression on the road. You are the person who finds it before that happens and who builds the systems that prevent it from happening again. That kind of upstream impact is hard to find in most roles. Here, it's the whole job.

You'll be well-supported: partnering closely with senior engineering and operations leadership, with the access and visibility to do your best work. What we ask in return is curiosity, rigor, and genuine care about getting it right.

About the Work

You will own the quality diagnostic layer across our labeling pipelines: defining the standard, building the instrumentation, and closing the gaps that matter most to model safety and performance.

About You

We are not looking for someone who has done everything. We are looking for someone who cares about the right things: data quality as a craft, systems thinking as a default, and mission as a motivator. If you are energized by finding what is broken and building what fixes it and you want that work to mean something this role was written for you.

What You Bring

Bonus Points

At Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package. For this position, the reasonably expected base pay range is between $120,270 and $180,410 for the level at which this job has been scoped. Your base pay will depend on several factors, including your experience, qualifications, education, location, and skills. In the event that you are considered for a different level, a higher or lower pay range would apply. This position is also eligible for an annual performance bonus, equity, and a competitive benefits package.
