Job Description
At Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package.
Key Responsibilities
- We are looking for a HR Business Partner (HRBP) to support Nuro’s rapidly scaling Autonomous Vehicle Operator (AVO) organization, a critical workforce driving our software testing, safety, and milestone delivery. As we hire hundreds of new operators into shift-based, high-accountability roles, this HRBP will focus heavily on employee relations, safety culture, first-line manager enablement, and operational HR support.
- You’ll partner deeply with Ops leadership to ensure our teams are supported, risks are mitigated, and our frontline employees have the clarity, tools, and environment needed to perform safely and effectively. This is a highly hands-on role that blends strategic thought partnership with day-to-day field HR, including supporting investigations, performance coaching, safety escalations, and workforce planning.
- The ideal candidate has experience supporting large hourly/non-exempt workforces, thrives in fast-moving operational environments, and can balance empathy, fairness, and business judgment while scaling systems that enable consistency and excellence.
Requirements
- 4+ years HRBP or HR Generalist experience supporting hourly, contingent, or temp-to-hire populations in operations, logistics, manufacturing, warehouse, or similar environments.
- Strong experience with high-volume ER, including investigations, documentation, and decision-making under time-sensitive operational conditions.
- Comfortable with onsite, shift-based environments, including occasional overnight or early morning shift support.
- Known for building quick trust with both workers and frontline managers—balancing empathy with clarity and accountability.
- Strong understanding of California employment law, particularly for high-volume non-exempt workforces.
- Process-minded: able to build lightweight, scalable approaches without slowing down operations.
- Calm, practical, and steady during safety escalations, staffing surges, or complex ER situations.
- High learning agility—you can quickly understand the operator workflow and how it ties into vehicle testing, milestones, and safety.
