Mountain View CA United States Nuro, Inc. Full time
Staff Software Engineer, Devices Platform

Nuro exists to better everyday life through robotics. Founded in 2016, Nuro is a leading autonomous technology company with vehicles on road today in California and Texas. The company’s core technology is the Nuro Driver, an integrated autonomous driving system consisting of state-of-the-art, AI-first software and custom-built sense and compute hardware. The first commercial application of the Nuro Driver is autonomous goods delivery with our custom, electric, zero-occupant vehicles in partnership with some of the most recognized brands in the world including Uber and FedEx.

About the Role

The Devices Platform team’s mandate is to lay the foundation of Nuro’s onboard software for our sensor and compute platform, including device drivers, inter-device protocols and pipelines, and device runtime APIs. Sensors and compute hardware are the eyes, ears, and brains of our self-driving robots. We are creating the hardware-agnostic platform to be used by the perception and autonomy SW stack, and to realize the full potential of our sensor and compute HW in reliability, quality, and performance. The projects we work on are high impact and high visibility within Nuro. This team is also responsible for working with internal stakeholders and external suppliers to define, evaluate, and integrate the next generation HW platform for Nuro’s products and to build the necessary tooling to assist continuous testing and validation.

  • Technical excellence: Proven ability to deep dive, hands-on, into complex embedded and real-time systems; strong proficiency in C++, with emphasis on concurrency; system software development expertise, from the device driver to the application level, with deep understanding of kernel-level algorithmic correctness and performance optimization
  • Reliability Experience: Experience with finding and solving one-in-a-million type reliability bugs in software/hardware systems
  • Leadership Experience: Experience leading technical projects which include components which should by design never fail (99.9999+% success rate)
  • 8+ years of experience with a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field; 6+ years of experience with a Ph.D. degree
  • Clear and concise communicator who collaborates effectively with engineers, PMs, and other stakeholders
Bonus Points
  • Experience in robotics hardware components, including sensors, embedded platforms (with multiple CPUs, GPUs, ISPs, and accelerators)
  • Knowledge of Linux kernel and device driver level programming, including threading, IPC, shared memory, and synchronization
  • Knowledge of networking, full IP protocol stack, from PHY through TCP, UDP, and to application layer
  • Experience with radar, lidar, visual or thermal imaging cameras
  • Experience with machine learning or image processing
  • Experience with GPU programming and low level driver optimization for Nvidia GPUs
  • Experience with programming peripheral devices and device communication protocols such as USB, SPI, I2C, UART

At Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package.
