About Nuro

Nuro is a self‑driving technology company on a mission to make autonomy accessible to all. Founded in 2016, Nuro builds the world’s most scalable driver, efficient AI Platform, 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 real‑world 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 Role

We are seeking a Chief of Staff to partner with the VP of AI Platform and the broader Technology Group leadership team. This highly strategic and operational role sits at the intersection of large‑scale infrastructure, data platforms, and the engineering systems that power Nuro’s autonomy and product development. The position is designed for a strategic and technically fluent operator who can bring structure and momentum to a broad engineering organization.

Organizational Operations and Execution

  • Partner with the VP and Technology Group leadership team to define, operationalize, and continuously improve the organization’s operating system.
  • Serve as an extension of the VP, drive execution on critical technical programs by identifying long‑pole dependencies, unblocking progress, and tracking key milestones across data, infrastructure, and software systems.
  • Facilitate collaboration between AI Platform, Autonomy, and Hardware teams to ensure alignment and integration across all technical layers of Nuro’s stack.
  • Manage leadership meetings, quarterly reviews, and cross‑functional communications to maintain clarity, momentum, and accountability.
  • Anticipate risks and proactively drive solutions across engineering and partner interfaces.

Strategic and Business Alignment

  • Serve as a thought partner to the VP on organization structure, strategic priorities, and resource allocation.
  • Help define and track critical milestones that tie AI Platform deliverables directly to company‑level objectives and commercialization timelines.
  • Drive alignment between Nuro’s technical roadmap and business strategy, ensuring the AI Platform’s architecture and tools accelerate autonomy development and customer success.
  • Act as a connective layer between deeply technical teams and cross‑functional stakeholders, translating complex engineering work into business impact and commercial readiness.
  • Program and Partner Management

  • Work with TPMs and functional leads to maintain clear visibility into critical‑path deliverables and readiness checkpoints across infrastructure, data systems, and ML development.
  • Coordinate with commercial and partner teams to ensure AI Platform capabilities are well‑positioned to support external use cases and integrations.
  • Translate technical updates into executive‑ready insights and communications for senior leadership and Board audiences.
  • People and Culture

  • Partner with the People and Recruiting teams to support headcount planning, talent reviews, and engagement initiatives.
  • Help foster a culture of operational rigor, accountability, and cross‑functional collaboration.
  • Encourage alignment, clarity, and consistency across geographically distributed teams.
  • About You

    You are a deeply motivated, intellectually curious, and technically fluent leader who thrives at the intersection of strategy and engineering. You bring a strong foundation in rigorous technical or analytical training, coupled with the drive to operate in fast‑moving, complex environments. You understand the tech stack at its core and use that understanding to guide strategic, high‑impact decisions.

  • 7+ years of experience in engineering operations, consulting, product or program management, or technical leadership roles within large‑scale software, AI, or infrastructure systems.
  • Proven technical depth, with the ability to engage meaningfully in discussions across software engineering areas.
  • Evidence of excellence, a track record of high performance and tangible impact in your current or previous roles, whether through technical achievement, organizational leadership, or strategic execution.
  • Exceptional analytical judgment, capable of navigating ambiguity, identifying first‑principles solutions, and driving clarity in complex decision spaces.
  • A rigorous, problem‑solving mindset, honed through disciplined thinking and years of technical or operational experience.
  • Strong communication and influence skills, enabling you to translate between engineering and business contexts and align diverse teams around shared outcomes.
  • Intrinsic motivation and a bias for action : you take ownership, anticipate challenges, and elevate the bar for operational excellence.
  • Bonus Points

  • Background in engineering, computer science, or another technically rigorous discipline.
  • Experience in AI, autonomy, robotics, or large‑scale software systems.
  • Consulting or strategic operations experience, combining business strategy with technical problem‑solving.
  • Experience supporting senior technical or executive leaders in high‑growth, technically complex organizations.
  • Compensation and Benefits

    For this position, the reasonably expected base pay range is between $160,000 and $240,000. The base pay will depend on experience, qualifications, education, location, and skills. This position is also eligible for an annual performance bonus, equity, and a competitive benefits package.
