Job description
from Waymo careersWaymo 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.
The Waymo Mapping team's goal is to build a high resolution map of the world to support safe autonomous driving. We work on creating the map using a combination of automatic and manual techniques and build the infrastructure to store, process, and distribute the map.
In this role, you will:
- Own business-critical systems for taking low latency actions in response to signals from Waymo’s fleet
- Develop algorithms and infrastructure for keeping the map fresh
- Build robust backend infrastructure and data processing that will scale with Waymo’s growth
- Make high-impact contributions across Waymo’s Mapping stack including infrastructure development, algorithm advances, and tooling improvements
