Who We Are
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.
Founded in 2016, Nuro is a physical AI company developing Level 4 autonomous driving technology for a wide range of vehicles, use cases, and markets. Powered by the Nuro Driver™, our universal autonomy platform enables the global mobility ecosystem to deploy autonomy at scale, from robotaxis and logistics fleets to personal vehicles.
With years of real-world deployment experience and a flexible, partner-led business model, Nuro is working toward a future where millions of autonomous vehicles powered by our technology help make everyday life safer, easier, and more connected.
Nuro has raised over $2B in capital from Uber, NVIDIA, Google, Softbank, Fidelity, T. Rowe Price, and other leading investors
About the Role
On the Autonomy Visualization team, your top priority will be developing high-quality visualization platforms. These platforms will allow any software engineer to add new viz elements. Additionally, you’ll also have the opportunity to work end-to-end on viz features and products, exercising both your technical skills, product sense, and cross-functional communication.
**About the Work
As an Autonomy Visualization Software Engineer, you’ll build business-critical tools that accelerate the development of Nuro’s autonomous driving technology.
- Build performant visualization frameworks in both C++ / OpenGL and Unity to serve multiple critical functions like autonomy development and validation, triage tools, and in-car visualization.
- Be a partner to Autonomy engineers as they seek to improve their development workflow with better visualization.
- Collaborate with ML Labeling teams, as they seek to gather high-quality training data with bespoke labeling tools.
- Interface with product managers and designers to build polished visualizations for external applications that represent Nuro well.
About You
- You have 3+ years of software development experience in C++, OpenGL and QT
- You have a basic understanding of graphics concepts (e.g., rendering pipelines, shaders, coordinate systems).
- Prior experience with visualization apps or game engines (OpenGL, Vulkan, Unity, Unreal)
- You’re deeply technical: you enjoy working through thorny performance problems in low-level code, and working with advanced language features.
