The Sensor Simulator Platform Team maintains the core of the simulation pipeline that allow Waymo to drive millions of simulated miles each year. The team is responsible for both the rendering/simulation engine as well as the pipeline that lets a variety of internal customers to run SensorSim at scale.

You will:

• Help build and maintain efficient simulators capable of running millions of simulated miles to evalute the safety of Waymo's onboard models

• Work with multi-modal data processing and simulation, including cameras, lidar, and radar

• Interface with AI and machine learning teams that develop parts of the simulation pipeline

You have:

• Developed or worked with 3D game engines

• Experience in approximating the real world with data simulation, which might include physics simulation, animation capture, light transport, photogrammetry, NeRFs, or Gaussian splats

• Experience in working on efficient asset management pipelines for data storage and processing

We prefer:

• Prior experience in working on or integrating with ML pipelines and a general understanding of how such pipelines are trained and improved

• Experience in scaling complex data processing pipelines and an understanding of the trade-offs in structuring these pipelines to operate synchronously or asynchronously
