About the job
Waymo, a leading autonomous driving technology company, is dedicated to becoming the world's most trusted driver. Established in 2009 as the Google Self-Driving Car Project, Waymo has been at the forefront of developing the Waymo Driver—The World’s Most Experienced Driver™. Our mission is to enhance mobility access and save lives currently lost to traffic accidents. The Waymo Driver powers our fully autonomous ride-hailing service and is adaptable to various vehicle platforms and use cases. With over ten million rides provided and extensive experience driving more than 100 million miles on public roads, and tens of billions in simulation across over 15 U. S. states, we are committed to transforming transportation.
At Waymo, we generate an extraordinary scale and complexity of data from billions of miles driven in simulations and millions on public roads. Central to our mission is the deep understanding of this data.
Our world-class data analysis infrastructure is the cornerstone of our success. It is crucial for:
- Validating the safety and performance of the Waymo Driver.
- Accelerating research and development cycles across engineering, including Simulation, Onboard, and Machine Learning.
- Facilitating data-driven decision-making for our commercial operations and product strategies.
- Standardizing our progress measurement and performance comparisons across different contexts.
Insights derived from our data platforms influence every aspect of our technology and business. We are in search of an extraordinary technical leader to drive the vision and architecture of these essential systems.
