The opportunity
A rider taps "request ride" and within seconds, an autonomous vehicle is matched, dispatched, and on its way. The On-Road Experience team owns the systems that make that moment happen.
What you'll do
Backend services for ride planning, vehicle matching, and real-time trip execution
Partner API integrations (Uber and others) routing ride requests to Nuro vehicles
Telemetry pipelines surfacing live vehicle state to riders and operations
+ years of backend engineering experience with strong Go proficiency
Experience designing and operating distributed systems where reliability isn't optional
End-to-end product ownership: from requirements through launch and iteration
What they're looking for
- Solid hands-on experience with GCP (CloudSQL, BigQuery, Redis, or equivalent)
- A track record of technical leadership: setting the bar, mentoring others, making hard trade-offs
- Domain Expertise: Experience with backend services related to vehicles, location, dispatch, inventory, or order/ride/delivery.
- Product and Business Acumen: A keen interest in the "why" in addition to the "how." You are eager to understand and contribute to product and business requirements, capable of identifying high-impact projects from a list of potential initiatives.
