Senior/Staff Software Engineer, Behavior Verification

As a Senior/Staff Software Engineer working on driving behavior verification, you are responsible for implementing metrics that evaluate the end-to-end behavior of the Nuro Driver. These metrics will be used to quantify the safety of the driving behavior in our target ODD. This requires prior experience with the development or verification of behavior planning/prediction systems for robots, and a collaborative nature to work closely with a variety of teams across Nuro: Systems, Onboard Software, Simulation, Product, and Operations.

• 5+ years of technical work experience in a relevant area with 3+ years of experience with software development.
• Hands-on software experience, with the ability to code proficiently in Python or C++.
• Bachelor’s Degree or Master’s Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Physics, or related field.
• Strong understanding of robotic systems architecture - how sensing, localization, perception, prediction, behavior, and control modules interact.
• Familiarity with simulation and real-world testing of autonomous systems.
• Highly collaborative in nature, with strong abilities to think and communicate analytically and effectively.
