Applied AI Researcher, Agent Systems & Evaluation

Who We Are

Nuro is a self-driving technology company on a mission to make autonomy accessible to all. Founded in 2016, Nuro is building the world’s most scalable driver, combining cutting-edge AI with automotive-grade hardware. Nuro licenses its core technology, the Nuro Driver™, to support a wide range of applications, from robotaxis and commercial fleets to personally owned vehicles. With technology proven over years of self-driving deployments, Nuro gives automakers and mobility platforms a clear path to AVs at commercial scale, empowering a safer, richer, and more connected future.

About the Team

Frontier models are fungible. Any team can rent the same intelligence we can, and the model we build on today will be replaced within a month. What is not fungible is the infrastructure that decides whether an autonomous system's output can be trusted — evaluation, verification, and the discipline to gate on evidence instead of impressions. Nuro has spent a decade building exactly that discipline for a robot that drives on public roads, and this team turns it inward: we build the platform that lets AI agents operate autonomously inside Nuro's own engineering organization, under the same standard of proof we apply to the vehicle.

Our mandate is to amplify the output of every engineer and researcher at Nuro by 100x. Not a better IDE, not a faster build — a change in what a single person can attempt. That number is a target, not a claim, and reaching it depends on one thing above all: autonomous work has to be trustworthy enough to run unattended. So our central ambition is to build the most rigorous closed-loop evaluation system for AI work anywhere. Leverage follows from trust, and trust follows from measurement.

We operate as a startup inside a company that has already shipped a hard thing. Small team, no established playbook, direct access to compute and to the systems we are automating. You
