Platform Simulation Engineer

Software Engineering builds the brains of Waymo's fully autonomous driving technology. Our software allows the Waymo Driver to perceive the world around it, make the right decision for every situation, and deliver people safely to their destinations. We think deeply and solve complex technical challenges in areas like robotics, perception, decision-making and deep learning, while collaborating with hardware and systems engineers. If you’re a software engineer or researcher who’s curious and passionate about Level 4 autonomous driving, we'd like to meet you.

In this hybrid role, you will report to a Software Engineering Manager.

You will:

• Advance our platform emulators, simulators and associated tools &  infrastructure to scale Waymo to more vehicles, faster.
• Implement hardware in the loop (HIL) software features for new vehicle platforms
• Software development and integration for off-the-shelf devices (simulators, adaptors, power supplies, etc.) and custom interface hardware
• Develop test automation frameworks: resource management and scheduling infrastructure, dashboard, user and admin utilities
• Integrate software models into the HIL simulation loop
• Help triage HIL tests failures

You have:

• 5+ Years of experience ein SW Development 
• Strong knowledge of modern C++
• Linux on advanced user level
• Electrical engineering fundamentals

We prefer:

• Passion for HIL simulation
• Embedded programming experience
• Linux for real-time applications
• Knowledge of general-purpose and automotive network systems (Ethernet, CAN, etc)
• Appreciation for design and code aesthetics
• Familiarity with the building blocks for data-center monitoring systems (databases, dashboards, etc)
