Senior Project Manager, ML Operations at Nuro, a self-driving technology company. Owns data quality standards across 10+ labeling pipelines, identifies systemic quality gaps, and drives improvements to training data accuracy for autonomous vehicle models.
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.
Nuro takes an ML-first approach to autonomous driving. The quality of our Nuro Driver™ is a direct function of the data that trains it, and this role owns that standard.
As a Senior Project Manager, ML Operations, you are not an execution manager. The team already has operators focused on keeping pipelines running. What we need is someone who steps back, looks across all of them, and asks: where is quality breaking down, why, and what do we do about it? You will co-own more than 10 active data labeling pipelines alongside senior leadership, with a singular focus on data quality and gap closure. You will be the person who identifies the signal in the noise, connects dots across pipelines that execution-focused OPMs cannot see from their vantage point, and drives the systemic improvements that raise the accuracy of our training data. Data labeling at this scale is unforgiving. A single systematic flaw in how objects are annotated or how edge cases are classified can propagate silently through training and surface as a safety regression on the road. This role demands someone wired for that level of precision, someone for whom "close enough" is never acceptable and who can see the difference between a labeling error and a labeling system error.
