Head of Systems Engineering (Senior Director)

Nuro is looking for a Head of Systems Engineering to own the systems backbone that enables the Nuro Driver to scale safely and commercially.

This leader will own the end-to-end systems engineering function across autonomy, software and hardware systems, technical parts of the safety case, requirements, system architecture, validation strategy and execution, system performance, and deployment readiness. The role sits at the center of Nuro’s technical and commercial execution, connecting product, functional and safety goals, autonomy capabilities, hardware constraints, the operational design domain, and commercial milestones into one coherent system strategy.

This is a critical role for Nuro’s next phase of growth. As we scale toward larger commercial launches, new geographies, new vehicle platforms, and broader deployment environments, this leader will help define what the system must do, how we know it works, what evidence proves it is ready, and what must be true before we launch or expand.

This is a technical leadership role for someone who is excited about turning frontier autonomous driving technology into a durable commercial product
