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.

Waymo’s Technical Program Managers are accountable for Waymo’s roadmap execution by providing thoughtful cross-functional planning, clarity, and proactive risk management.

  • Prioritize projects across the portfolio, ensuring scope, time, budget is defined and aligned

You have:

  • 5+ years of experience as a Technical Program Manager
  • Track record of managing complex programs where precision and attention to detail are critical to success
  • Experience driving large cross-functional programs with a holistic understanding of business-wide functions (ie. Product, Eng, External Engagement, etc) 
  • Strong leadership skills, and clear verbal and written communication, alongside the ability to navigate ambiguity and drive decision-making
