The role
Waymo is an autonomous driving technology company with the mission to be the world's 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’s fully autonomous ride-hail service and can also be applied to a range of vehicle platforms and product use cases. The Waymo Driver has provided over ten million rider-only trips, enabled by its experience autonomously driving over 100 million miles on public roads and tens of billions in simulation across 15+ U.S. states.
Want to build the next generation of infrastructure for driverless cars?
Join our Waymo’s Supply Optimization Infrastructure team, and help us design the future of transportation! We are looking for a passionate Senior SWE who wants to help build the systems that improve Waymo's core fleet management systems.
You are someone who is product-minded. You will work on cross-cutting problems to require cross-team collaboration, both technically (mobile app, cloud backends, and the Waymo Driver) and functionally (operations, product, legal, partnerships, policy & privacy) to develop and deliver business critical infrastructure.
In this hybrid role, you will report to an Engineering Manager.
You will:
- Build and evolve mission-critical tools and systems that allow Waymo to scale and serve new markets.
- Solve hard real-world problems related to orchestration and optimization of the fleet of autonomous vehicles.
- Collaborate with Product, UX, and other engineers to design and develop internal user-facing products.
- Ship solutions to novel problems that arise in a fast-paced environment
You have:
- BS degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
- 5+ years of backend engineering or infrastructure experience
We prefer:
- Experience with C++ (or a willingness to participate in professional development activities to stay current on industry knowledge)
- Experience working in environments including nontechnical team members
- Experience with operations tooling, developer productivity, or developer tools
