The posting

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's cars may be self-driving, but its construction projects are steered by experts like you. Safety is our foundation and is at the heart of everything we do. As Waymo's Regional PreConstruction Manager you will be responsible for the due diligence and preconstruction of a variety of facilities including Service Centers, EV Charging Facilities, Office, and Lab/ R&D typologies across the globe for Waymo in an extremely fast paced environment with a high degree of ambiguity. At every turn, process excellence, collaboration, and detailed cross-org communications are critical.

This role follows a hybrid work schedule and reports to The Head of Project Delivery

You will:

  • Lead Regional Technical Due Diligence: Own and manage the technical due diligence process for all candidate properties within your region, reviewing power capacity, zoning, land usage, environment risks and ODD alignment
  • Oversee Feasibility, Test-Fits & Cost Estimates: Direct and review the spatial test-fit layouts, conceptual cost estimates, and initial project schedules in your region
  • Track Regional Milestones & RAID Governance: Actively track critical-path milestones, manage dependencies, and maintain regional Risks, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies (RAID) logs across all active pre-construction projects to proactively identify and resolve bottlenecks
  • Drive Regional Artifact Standardization: Standardize and enforce the use of global pre-construction artifacts (e.g., scope templates, due diligence checklists, and handoff deliverables), ensuring every regional project starts from a consistent, reusable baseline and that all variations are intentional and controlled
  • Manage Regional Vendor Sourcing & Accountability: Oversee the regional pre-construction vendors (e.g., architects, civil engineers, cost consultants, etc.), holding them accountable to high performance and rigorous deliverable quality
  • Build & Lead the Regional Pre-Con Team: Recruit, mentor, and develop a high-performing regional pre-construction team, growing individual capabilities and scaling pre-con coverage to match the expanding market pipeline.

You have:

  • BA/BS Degree: BA/BS degree in a related field such as Construction Management, Architecture, or Engineering (or equivalent practical experience)
  • Pre-Construction Leadership: 7-10 years of experience leading pre-construction projects, property feasibility evaluations, or commercial/industrial development projects
  • Cost Discipline: Proven experience producing conceptual cost estimates and financial models that are directly used by executive leadership to commit capital and approve major real estate investments
  • Portfolio Vendor Management & Quality Accountability: Proven experience managing a diverse portfolio of third-party design, engineering, and consulting vendors, with a demonstrated ability to evaluate their deliverables, enforce strict quality standards, and hold them accountable to high performance

We prefer:

  • Regional Jurisdiction Experience: Deep operational or design familiarity navigating localized zoning boards, permitting authorities, and construction parameters within your assigned region
  • Diverse Environment Expertise: Experience in high-velocity logistics, automotive, tech-manufacturing, or mixed-use environments (office, industrial, labs, and depots), with an understanding of the different needs between corporate environments and operational or testing sites
  • Greenfield Market Due Diligence & Adaptation: Experience leading technical due diligence and feasibility planning in brand-new or unestablished regional markets where you must stand up operations from scratch with no pre-existing corporate infrastructure.

Travel Requirement:

  • Up to 30% travel time

The expected base salary range for this full-time position is listed below. Actual starting pay will be based on job-related factors, including exact work location, experience, relevant training and education, and skill level. Waymo employees are also eligible to participate in Waymo’s discretionary annual bonus program, equity incentive plan, and generous Company benefits program, subject to eligibility requirements.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
