Senior Technical Sourcer

Nuro
California
Who We Are

Nuro is a self-driving technology company on a mission to make autonomy accessible to all. Founded in 2016, Nuro is building the world’s most scalable driver, 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 self-driving deployments, Nuro gives the automakers and mobility platforms a clear path to AVs at commercial scale, empowering a safer, richer, and more connected future.

About The Role

As a senior member of Nuro’s Technical Sourcing team, you will build and maintain top-tier talent pipelines for leadership and technical roles across ML, AI, and Robotics. Partnering closely with engineering leaders and recruiters, you will deliver targeted research, craft personalized outreach for passive and competitive talent, and ensure a high-quality candidate experience. This role is ideal for someone with strong technical acumen who thrives in ambiguity and approaches sourcing strategically

About The Work

  • Partner with hiring managers, recruiters, and technical leaders to define ideal candidate profiles, align on sourcing strategies, and refine requirements as searches evolve.
  • Build and execute precision-targeted searches across Engineering and Leadership roles.
  • Craft personalized, thoughtful outreach to engage even the most passive and competitive technical talent.
  • Act as the primary top-of-funnel owner—from research and mapping through initial engagement and qualification—ensuring a positive, high-signal candidate experience.
  • Leverage creative, non-traditional sourcing channels to uncover undervalued or hard-to-find talent.
  • Track pipeline data, funnel health, and sourcing impact with rigor; proactively surface insights, trends, and blockers.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Recruiting Operations, People Analytics, and Engineering partners to improve processes, implement new tools, and raise the bar for technical sourcing.
  • Support leadership searches by identifying successors, building market maps, and maintaining calibrated slates for senior engineering roles.

About You

  • 5+ years of technical sourcing experience with a proven track record in Leadership, Robotics, AI/ML, Autonomy, or deeply technical engineering domains.
  • Demonstrated success engaging and converting high-caliber passive talent in competitive markets.
  • Strong technical acumen—you understand how complex engineering systems fit together and can quickly ramp on new domains.
  • Experience supporting or directly sourcing for leadership-level engineering roles.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple concurrent searches.
  • Data-driven mindset; you use funnel metrics to prioritize, refine approaches, and communicate impact.
  • Naturally curious, persistent, and energized by digging deep, iterating, and playing the long-term sourcing game.
  • Excited about autonomy, robotics, and hard tech—and eager to contribute to Nuro’s mission.

Bonus Points

  • Experience sourcing for Systems Engineering, AV Safety, Autonomy, or Robotics Software.
  • Proven success building diverse candidate pipelines.
  • Familiarity with Greenhouse ATS, Gem, and other recruiting automation tools.
  • History of balancing a high volume of open roles with ease.
  • Ability to learn quickly and adapt well to a constantly evolving environment with shifting priorities.
