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 Waymo Mapping team's goal is to build a high resolution map of the world to support safe autonomous driving.

  • Build backend infrastructure for storing and processing many forms of map data
  • Leverage Google's ecosystem to build, deploy, and scale backend services that process vast amounts of mapping data.
  • Scale systems to map the world's cities, enabling Waymo's rapid expansion into new and complex urban environments.

You have:

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3 years of relevant industry experience
