Software Engineer (Performance)

Join Nuro's Performance team as a Software Engineer, where you'll optimize the performance of our autonomous vehicle software. You'll analyze, profile, debug, and monitor the performance of AV software, design and develop systems for memory management and thread prioritization, and work with engineers from different teams to define system-level architecture. You'll also build core libraries and APIs to enable high-performance code and drive best practices within the team and organization.
