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.
The Strategic SWE Reserve (SSR) is a versatile task force designed to bridge the gaps in Waymo’s most critical scaling efforts. We operate as internal generalists, jumping into any part of the stack— from onboard software that drives the car to offboard infrastructure that directs our fleet of thousands of cars— to fix problems & unblock high-priority goals. This role requires an engineer who is “breadth first” and loves working in new codebases. If you are a doer who prefers delivering high-leverage solutions, SSR offers the broadest possible view of how we build and scale the World’s Most Experienced Driver.
