A rider taps "request ride" and within seconds, an autonomous vehicle is matched, dispatched, and on its way.
Key Responsibilities
This is the perfect role if you love architecting performant, reliable distributed systems, processing real-time vehicle data, and building the foundational APIs that enable seamless product experiences. The position demands technical excellence, a deep understanding of system design, and a knack for solving tough problems. Come join us in defining the future!
Backend services for ride planning, vehicle matching, and real-time trip execution
Partner API integrations (Uber and others) routing ride requests to Nuro vehicles
Telemetry pipelines surfacing live vehicle state to riders and operations
Requirements
4+ years of backend engineering experience with strong Go proficiency
Experience designing and operating distributed systems where reliability isn't optional
End-to-end product ownership — from requirements through launch and iteration
Solid hands-on experience with GCP (CloudSQL, BigQuery, Redis, or equivalent)
A track record of technical leadership: setting the bar, mentoring others, making hard trade-offs
Great to have: dispatch, fleet, location, or delivery/ride platform experience. Even better if you've built systems where the physical world is the end user.
