Job Description

Hybrid

Waymo is an autonomous driving technology company with the mission to be the most trusted driver. Since its start as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009, Waymo has focused on building the Waymo Driver—The World's Most Experienced Driver™—to improve access to mobility while saving thousands of lives now lost to traffic crashes. The Waymo Driver powers Waymo One, a fully autonomous ride-hailing service, and can also be applied to a range of vehicle platforms and product use cases. The Waymo Driver has provided over one million rider-only trips, enabled by its experience autonomously driving tens of millions of miles on public roads and tens of billions in simulation across 13+ U.S. states.

The TaaS (Transportation as a Service) and Ride-Hailing Infrastructure team builds mission-critical backend systems, and on-vehicle software, that allows Waymo's autonomous vehicles to operate at tremendous commercial scale.

We solve complex technical challenges in areas like Vehicle Route Optimization, Scalability, and Capacity Planning, while collaborating with software engineers, data scientists, and product managers both on and off the car. Our systems allow our vehicles to deliver people and goods safely and efficiently to their destinations - so if you're a software engineer who's curious and passionate about bringing Level 4 autonomous driving to the public, we'd like to meet you!
