Mountain View, United States Nuro Full time

Who We Are 

Nuro exists to better everyday life through robotics. The company’s custom electric autonomous vehicles are designed to bring the things you need—from produce to prescriptions—right to your home. Nuro’s autonomous, goods-focused solution can give you valuable time back and more freedom to do what you love. This convenient, eco-friendly alternative to driving has the potential to make streets safer and cities more livable. 

About the Team

The Systems Engineering team is responsible for the requirements, architecture, and validation of autonomous driving capabilities across engineering disciplines. This includes designing performance metrics, evaluation methods, and criteria for success, which the team then drives cross-functional via requirement definition and system validation. Systems Engineering works at the intersection of hardware, software, and robot operations, with a deep understanding of technologies in all three. We are a small, high-impact team that sets the checkpoints for autonomy deployment.

About the Work

  • Lead the validation of motion control by coordinating with Autonomy Behavior, Controls, Embedded SW and Vehicle Test teams for plan and execution of validation activities.
  • Recommend and quantify coverage of test suites for validation of Motion Control system, including ensuring the realism and relevance of proposed tests across simulation, HIL, onroad, and closed course.
  • Recommend trajectory constraints of various virtual drivers for current and future Operational Design Domains on different vehicle platforms.
  • Architect and derive requirements for the vehicle fault management system that monitors vehicle health and triggers appropriate reactions to faults.
  • Propose verification and validation plans for the vehicle fault management system to ensure compliance with internal and external standards.
  • Work closely with controls, embedded SW, EE and product management teams and external vendors to review and recommend changes to existing requirements and test plans of vehicle fault management systems.
  • Support functional safety analyses like FTA, FMEA, etc and lead the efforts on safety work products pertaining to motion control and fault management systems with cross functional teams.
  • Support the verification and validation efforts by reviewing and suggesting additional tests and implementing test cases on SIL/HIL environments.

About You

  • Deep understanding of how vehicle systems work and ability to leverage this knowledge to plan for verification and validation. 
  • 3+ years of experience designing control systems for vehicle motion control.
  • 3+ years of experience working on fault management or diagnostics systems for automotive applications
  • Experience testing in HIL environments or on road testing. 
  • Hands on experience in systems engineering and automotive functional safety (ISO 26262) including requirements generation
  • Ability to read code in C++ and write code in Python / MATLAB
  • Strong communication skills - both verbal and written
  • 5+ years of technical work experience in a relevant area, of which 3+ years should be in designing control systems.

Bonus Points

  • AV or ADAS background. 
  • Familiarity with other safety standards such as STPA, ISO-21448
