Job Description

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.

Waymo's commercial service is running in ten cities, and the associated infrastructure is in an early stage. Investment is required for Waymo to grow into a high scale, world-class service.

We are building a team of engineers dedicated to further enhance this infrastructure for our in-car experience. Our team is responsible for creating foundational components, libraries, tools, and platforms that empower feature teams to build and ship world-class experiences at scale. You’ll be a key architect in shaping the future of the rider journey in autonomous vehicles.

In this hybrid role, you will report to an Engineering Manager.

You will:

Design, build, and maintain core Android frameworks and components that power the passenger experience.
Create and enhance tooling to improve developer workstreams and overall productivity.
Improve and optimize application and system performance.
Collaborate closely with feature teams to provide the technical tools and direction for their projects.

You have:

BS/MS degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
3+ years of software development experience.
Experience with Android platform and application development using Kotlin/Compose/View/XMLs.
Solid understanding of the Android SDK, Android internals, and mobile development best practices.

We prefer:

Experience building and maintaining shared Android libraries, SDKs, or components.
Experience with performance analysis, profiling, and optimization tools.
Familiarity with dependency injection frameworks.
