About the role

We are looking for a Senior/Staff Software Engineer to serve as a technical leader for Nuro's ML Data engine.
You will sit at the critical intersection of Autonomy, Machine Learning, and Infrastructure, acting as an architect for the systems that feed our autonomy AI models.
In this role you will be a member of the Autonomy team responsible for executing the technical strategy for transforming massive amounts of autonomy data into high-value training signals for autonomy decision making.

Nuro believes self-driving vehicles are the most immediate and profound opportunity for AI to drive positive change in the physical world.
Safer streets, more time for what matters, and easier access to the world around us, that's why we're building a universal autonomy platform: self-driving for all roads and all rides.
Design and build scalable data ingestion and processing pipelines that turn data streams into targeted training datasets.
Lead initiatives to improve data quality, detect anomalies, and manage out-of-distribution examples to ensure robust model training and deployment.
Work across autonomy teams and data infra teams to build effective ML data pipelines and products for ML engineers.
Collaborate closely with the data operations team to define quality standards, automate quality control (QC), and streamline the feedback loop between model performance and annotation guidelines.
You will design and build data products for autonomy researchers, develop queries for rare "needle-in-a-haystack" scenarios, and trigger labeling and data ingestion workflows without human intervention.
Data Pipeline Architecture: Design and build scalable data ingestion and processing pipelines that turn data streams into targeted training datasets.
Cross Functional Leadership: Work across autonomy teams and data infra teams to build effective ML data pipelines and products for ML engineers.

7+ years of experience with a proven track record of technical leadership architecting and delivering complex, multi-system ML data engineering data systems.
Strong proficiency in C++ and Python, with petabyte-level data management experience.
Experience taking data concepts (e.g., "uncertainty sampling") and turning them into stable, 24/7 production services.

Experience in workflow orchestration, introspection UI/UX for data understanding, and ML frameworks for foundation model training.
