The opportunity
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…
What you'll do
Understand our users -: there are many different ways we leverage simulation and on-road data to make decisions at Waymo: improve models that drive the car, assess our performance in a new environment or validate the readiness of a new vehicle platform. Each of these decisions requires a commitment to safety
Work with a team of world class data scientists, engineers, machine learning: practitioners to evaluate the safety and quality of our driving behavior in a data-driven way.
Power the launch of the Waymo Driver in new environments, especially new: international markets, by designing and executing an evaluation plan for critical new scopes and/or driving behaviors.
Land features throughout simulation (such as synthetic data generation,: sensor simulation and simulated agents) to increase signal and improve our ability to learn from simulation
Work closely with Onboard developers who use our products to assess their: launches in simulation: build products that leverage simulation to increase the confidence, quality and speed of onboard launches.
+ years experience working on AV, Robotics, or products that utilize Machine Learning or AI
What they're looking for
- Experience in analytical roles or AI / ML roles, interacting with data scientists
- Experience working in distributed systems, data infrastructure and/or cloud computing
- Ability to think about long-term product vision, and then decompose that into: concrete, actionable plans with cross-org alignment
- Experience with Simulation or Evaluation of AVs, Large Foundational Model: training / evaluation pipelines or the evaluation / experimentation platforms for large production systems (Ads, Search, Ranking, etc..)
