Mountain View, Arkansas, United States Waymo Full time

Waymo is a pioneering autonomous driving technology company with a mission to become the most trusted driver. Our team has been working tirelessly since 2009 to build the Waymo Driver, the world's most experienced driver, to improve access to mobility while saving thousands of lives lost to traffic crashes.

The Waymo Driver powers Waymo One, a fully autonomous ride-hailing service, and can be applied to various vehicle platforms and product use cases. With over one million rider-only trips and tens of millions of miles driven on public roads, our technology has proven to be reliable and efficient.

The Transportation as a Service (TaaS) and Ride-Hailing Infrastructure team at Waymo builds mission-critical backend systems and on-vehicle software that enables our autonomous vehicles to operate at commercial scale. We solve complex technical challenges in areas like Vehicle Route Optimization, Scalability, and Capacity Planning, collaborating with software engineers, data scientists, and product managers.

Our systems allow our vehicles to deliver people and goods safely and efficiently to their destinations. If you're a software engineer passionate about bringing Level 4 autonomous driving to the public, we'd like to meet you.

In this hybrid role, you will report to our Senior Software Engineering Manager. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Designing and developing platform and infrastructure that supports various ride-hailing businesses
  • Providing APIs for both our first-party service and partner services
  • Optimizing the marketplace to balance the supply and utilization of Waymo's autonomous vehicle fleet
  • Working with experts in the field of autonomous vehicles
  • Implementing and scaling the backend for Waymo's ride-hailing services

This collection of systems manages trip requests, provides APIs to client apps and partner services, calculates pickup and ride times, matches right vehicles to riders, and calculates the price of rides. You will work with partners to design and implement the ride-hailing platform to provide ride-hailing services for several different partners.

As a member of our team, you will develop expertise in and make use of various Google technologies, like Borg, Spanner, Flume, and custom-built systems for our specific problems.

We are looking for a talented software engineer with:

  • ~ BS degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
  • ~5+ years of industry experience in general distributed systems and backend development
  • ~ Proficient in C++

We prefer candidates with:

  • ~ MS in Computer Science, or equivalent practical experience
  • ~8+ years of experience in general distributed systems and backend development
  • ~8+ years of experience programming in C++ and/or with writing robust, efficient code
  • ~ Experience in developing low latency, large-scale, user-facing distributed systems

Waymo employees are eligible to participate in our discretionary annual bonus program, equity incentive plan, and generous Company benefits program, subject to eligibility requirements.

Salary Range: $192,000 - $243,000 USD
