À propos

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. Within the Perception organization, the Semantics core team is comprised of three specialized subgroups, each tackling a critical aspect of scene understanding. The Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) subgroup focuses on identifying and interpreting the behavior of pedestrians, cyclists, and other vulnerable road users to enhance safety and rider comfort. The Traffic Control subgroup is dedicated to developing and deploying advanced ML models that interpret traffic lights, signs, and other controls, with a key focus on improving map robustness. The Scene Semantics subgroup addresses the complexities of unstructured environments like construction zones and emergency scenes, driving architectural upgrades and new feature development. Together, these three teams leverage strong end-to-end ML expertise to build robust perception systems essential for safe and efficient autonomous operation.
In this hybrid role, you will report to the Technical Lead Manager of Semantics.
You will:
Develop state-of-the-art ML models to understand complex and dynamic scenes, enabling our vehicles to navigate challenges like varied traffic controls, pedestrian and cyclist interactions, construction zones, emergency scenes, and/or mapless driving.
Own the end-to-end ML pipeline, from data mining and labeling to training and deployment of models.
You have:
4+ years of experience in Machine Learning, with a strong focus on computer vision and/or deep learning for perception tasks.
Deep understanding of state-of-the-art ML techniques for object classification, detection, tracking, pose estimation, and/or action recognition.
Proficiency in at least one major deep learning framework (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, JAX).
We prefer:
PhD degree in Computer Science or a similar discipline, or an equivalent amount of deep learning experience.
Experience with multi-modal perception systems (e.g., combining camera, lidar, radar data).
Familiarity with foundation models and techniques for model adaptation (e.g., few-shot learning, transfer learning, domain adaptation).
Experience in optimizing ML models for on-device deployment and real-time performance.
Background in autonomous driving, robotics, or a related safety-critical domain.
Publications in top-tier ML/CV conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, ICCV, ECCV).
#LI-Hybrid The expected base salary range for this full-time position across US locations is listed below. Actual starting pay will be based on job-related factors, including exact work location, experience, relevant training and education, and skill level. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for the role location or, if the role can be performed remote, the specific salary range for your preferred location, during the hiring process.
Waymo employees are also eligible to participate in Waymo's discretionary annual bonus program, equity incentive plan, and generous Company benefits program, subject to eligibility requirements. Salary Range $204,000—$259,000 USD
