The opportunity
Nuro is looking for a Head of Systems Engineering to own the systems backbone that enables the Nuro Driver to scale safely and commercially.
What you'll do
Scale the Nuro Driver across different vehicle platforms and commercial applications.
Build a robust safety case that supports public-road deployment and expansion.
Translate autonomy progress into measurable system-level readiness.
Connect hardware, software, safety, product, and operations into one integrated technical strategy.
Create the standards, evidence, and decision frameworks required for long-term commercial scale.
Own and scale Nuro’s Systems Engineering function across autonomy, hardware,: safety case, requirements, validation, system performance, technical risk, and deployment readiness.
What they're looking for
- Define the systems engineering strategy required to support Nuro’s next phase: of growth across multiple cities, vehicle platforms, commercial partnerships, and future international markets.
- Translate product goals, safety goals, commercial use cases, and deployment: milestones into system requirements, measurable performance targets, validation plans, and launch readiness frameworks.
- Own the requirements architecture, system decomposition, and interface: management for the Nuro Driver across autonomy software, sensing, compute, vehicle software and hardware, and safety.
- Drive the system-level safety case in collaboration with Autonomy, Hardware,: Legal, Product, and Operations, ensuring the safety argument is rigorous, evidence-based, and tied to commercial deployment milestones.
