Software Engineer, Offboard Infrastructure

Nuro Nuro · Robotics · CA · Offboard Infrastructure

Software Engineer focused on Offboard Infrastructure for Nuro's self-driving technology. The role involves working on the Data Platform (managing AI Driver data, labels, metrics, annotation, ingestion, mining, embedding search, autonomy evaluation infrastructure), Simulation (simulator, frameworks, sensor simulation, scenario generation, real-world data with synthetic techniques), or Technical Infrastructure (compute platform, storage management, cloud infrastructure, engineering productivity tools). Requires strong programming in Python, C++, or Go, and experience in distributed systems, data processing, microservices, ML, multithreading, or robotics software frameworks.

What you'd actually do

  1. The Data Platform serves as a comprehensive management system for Nuro AI Driver's data, labels, and metrics, facilitating seamless access functionality.
  2. The team focuses on data annotation across various domains, including 2D/3D perception, mapping, behavior trajectory, and language/text.
  3. It also handles data ingestion and mining, employing methods such as heuristics and embedding search.
  4. Additionally, the platform supports the autonomy evaluation infrastructure by providing detailed introspection.
  5. We work on the core simulator and simulation frameworks, sensor simulation, scenario generation, and solutions that combine real-world data with synthetic techniques to push the boundaries of what can be simulated, collaborating closely with teams across Autonomy and AI Platform to allow us to simulate realistically and reliably at scale.
  6. this group owns few fundamental services for entire engineering organizations: generic compute platform to host mission-critical workflows such as data processing and simulation, storage management service which manages hundreds of PB of data, cloud infrastructure serves as IaaC which provisions and maintains all cloud resources, engineering productivity provides tools such as build and CI/CD to make engineering work more efficient.
