Mountain View, California, United States Nuro Full time
About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Machine Learning Research Scientist to join our team at Nuro. As a key member of our behavior team, you will be responsible for developing and implementing state-of-the-art generative models for autonomous driving.

Your primary focus will be on researching and developing scalable generative models, with a focus on diffusion models for behavior modeling. You will work on learning a distribution of future behaviors of our autonomous vehicle and other on-road agents, and apply the model to various tasks such as planning, prediction, data generation, simulation, and so on.

Additionally, you will research and implement SoTA algorithms to improve generative models' performance and optimize their latency. This includes alignment with reward/cost models, controllability, model scaling up and distillation, mode recovery, fine-tuning with closed-loop RL, etc.

We are looking for candidates with a strong background in machine learning and research experience in generative models and diffusion models for autonomous driving and robotics. Experience in video generation, text-to-image generation, image in-painting/out-painting, etc. are also welcome.

As a team player, you will collaborate across autonomy teams to develop holistic solutions to top autonomy challenges. You will derive practical solutions and deploy them on the NuroBot.

We offer a competitive salary range of $138,225 to $207,575, an annual performance bonus, equity, and a comprehensive benefits package. At Nuro, we celebrate diversity and are committed to a workplace that fosters inclusion and psychological safety for all employees.
