About the role
- This is a 12 month embedded role for someone who loves finding what's broken and fixing it for good.
- Process improvement should be in your DNA - not a skill you've practiced, but the way you naturally see the world.
- You'll spend real time inside the in-house team's workflow, then turn what you learn into sharper procedures, cleaner rubrics, and a taxonomy that actually fits the work.
Responsibilities
- 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.
- Build relationships with vendor account managers so problems surface early, not late
- Own documentation that is clear, current, and built to outlast any one person
- We own QC, tool testing, and bug reproduction across labeling workflows, and we care deeply about the craft of doing that work well.
Nice to have
- Experience in robotics, autonomy, mapping, or visual software environments
- Familiarity with U.S. roadways and driving behavior
- Experience coordinating offshore or distributed contractor teams
- Experience running inter-rater reliability or calibration programs
Skills
- tools, handoffs, edge cases, and the friction nobody has documented yet
- A track record of improving procedures, rubrics, or classification frameworks, not just executing against them
- Sharp pattern recognition and the communication skills to turn observations into clear recommendations
- Comfort with tools like Notion, Confluence, Airtable, Jira, or similar
- Close the gaps where rubrics meet reality and real-world cases don't fit neatly into the framework
- Audit the classification framework for defects, labeling outputs, and operational findings
- Learn the workflow from the inside: tools, handoffs, edge cases, and the friction nobody has documented yet
Compensation
- At Nuro, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package.
