Job description

from Waymo careers

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.

Waymo generates an unprecedented scale and complexity of data from billions of miles driven in simulation, millions on public roads, and the growing commercial operations. At the heart of achieving our mission lies the ability to deeply understand this data.

World-class data analysis infrastructure is the bedrock of Waymo's success. It is absolutely critical for:

  • Validating the safety and performance of the Waymo Driver.
  • Accelerating research and development cycles across engineering, including Simulation, Onboard, and Machine Learning.
  • Enabling data-driven decisions for our commercial operations and product strategy.
  • Standardizing how we measure progress and compare performance across different contexts.
