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.
At Waymo, we are designing the custom compute platform that runs the Waymo Driver, powering millions of rider-only trips and navigating over 100 million miles on public roads. When you are deploying custom silicon for safety-critical physical systems, the responsibility is great. You need absolute correctness, exhaustive coverage, and a relentless focus on continuous improvement. To achieve this,



the Waymo Compute team is scaling worldwide. In this role you will shape the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration by guiding the validation of a cutting-edge SoC.
This role is primarily in-office and reports to Head of Silicon.
