The opportunity
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…
What you'll do
Influence suppliers: Work directly with vendors on component level decisions and with Tier 1 module suppliers on system-level performance, cost, and reliability. You’ll build long lasting partnerships with key players.
Balance cost and performance: Make trade offs between price, manufacturability, and performance so our sensor choices are technically excellent and commercially viable at scale.
Connect teams: Partner with Perception, Systems, and Product to turn their needs into clear sensor requirements, and bring supply base insights to leadership to build an actionable roadmap.
Set the technical direction for our Radar evaluation and selection strategy
Define Radar performance requirements, specifications, and evaluation: criteria, grounded in real downstream perception and system needs.
Build, run, and standardize rigorous bench and in-context evaluation: methodologies for candidate Radar sensors.
What they're looking for
- Drive supplier engagements at both Tier 1 and Tier 2 levels, influencing: component roadmaps and full-module designs to align with our requirements.
- Lead technical due diligence on Radar vendors and technologies, producing: clear comparative assessments and recommendations.
- Mentor and grow the existing Radar team.
- Partner with Perception, Software, and Mechanical teams to ensure Radar: selections integrate cleanly into the broader sensing and compute architecture.
