Tech Stack

Description

You will be responsible for verifying that the Nuro Driver is safe to deploy in its target operational design domain (ODD) and complies with the rules of the road. You will have end-to-end ownership from requirements definition, metrics design, and test strategy development, working closely with Autonomy Software, Simulation, Product, and Operations teams.

Requirements

• 5+ years technical work experience with 3+ years in development/validation of autonomous vehicles or robotic systems.
• Experience creating behavior requirements for SAE L2, L3, or L4 autonomous systems.
• Experience with simulation and real-world testing of autonomous systems.
• Strong understanding of autonomy architecture: sensing, localization, perception, prediction, behavior, control.
• Hands-on software experience coding in Python or C++.

Responsibilities

• Create requirements for autonomous system ensuring safe operation within ODD and compliance with rules of the road.
• Design generalizable metrics and acceptance criteria to verify system requirements using safety standards.
• Propose and leverage diverse test strategies: synthetic/log simulation, on-road logs, closed-course testing, third-party accident reconstructions.
• Collaborate with Behavior, Perception, Data Science, Product, Legal, and Public Trust teams to develop acceptance criteria.
• Quantify test coverage for ODD, ensuring simulation realism and relevance for deployment.
