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.

You will:

  • Ensure that Waymo technology programs satisfy the business needs of internal and external users. Duties include:
  • Develop simulator multi-platform strategy in partnership with engineering and product leads, contributing to simulator's long-term vision by defining OKRs, KPIs, roadmap, and success criteria;
  • Execute the foundational world model roadmap to ensure synthetic test suites are reliable, realistic, and representative of real-world performance in support of U.S. and international commercial expansion;
  • Create ML model development plans to improve simulator realism across 3D graphics, physics-based animation, sensor simulation, intelligent agent behavior, reactivity, and data augmentation;
  • Integrate the release process of the core simulator and intelligent simulation realism features with the onboard software release cadence to enhance transparency, compatibility, and system trust;
  • Develop scalable methodology, process, and tool for simulator realism evaluation, including the rollout of AI-assisted agentic workflows to enhance triage efficiency;
  • Lead simulator architecture transformation into a scalable product, driving initiatives to reduce configuration complexity, enhance self-serve tools, improve documentation, streamline onboarding, and reduce operational overhead to boost scenario creation throughput;
  • Built an adaptable program planning framework for a simulator platform, supporting feature intake, bug reporting, prioritization, execution tracking, and retrospectives to meet evolving requirements for a credible and scalable simulation system;
  • Drive alignments across key stakeholders with system engineering, simulation, evaluation, and onboard software teams to ensure globally optimized decisions that reflect top company priorities rather than isolated team-level objectives;
  • Represent the team’s scope and dependencies in cross-functional programs, aligning simulator milestones with company-wide goals to optimize resourcing between long-term foundational world model release and near-term program delivery; and
  • Establish a program communication structure that connects sprint-level work with executive reviews, enabling clear updates on execution status, risks, and priorities. Fully remote, telecommuting position.

You have:

  • Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Software Engineering, or related field and two years of experience in the job offered or a Technical Program Management related occupation.
  • Position requires two years of experience in the following:
  • Large scale project management experience (multiple projects, multiple stakeholders, large teams, complex team setup), including experience with various project management methodologies such as Agile, SAfe, Waterfall, Lean, and DAD;
  • Machine learning;
  • Software simulation tools;
  • End-to-end autonomous driving algorithm development;
  • System engineering, and test methodologies technical management for autonomous driving applications;
  • Sensor system development technical management for autonomous driving applications; and
  • Vehicle control system development technical management for autonomous driving applications.

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.
