Job description

Software Engineering builds the brains of Waymo's fully autonomous driving technology. Our software allows the Waymo Driver to perceive the world around it, make the right decision for every situation, and deliver people safely to their destinations. We think deeply and solve complex technical challenges in areas like robotics, perception, decision-making and deep learning, while collaborating with hardware and systems engineers. If you’re a software engineer or researcher who’s curious and passionate about Level 4 autonomous driving, we'd like to meet you.

Waymo interns partner with leaders in the industry on projects that create impact to the company.

Job responsibilities

  • Analyze and characterize internal feature representations of deep multimodal perception foundation models.
  • Validate model performance on large-scale autonomous vehicle sensor datasets and simulation environments.
  • Train, fine-tune, and evaluate deep neural networks to improve model performance.
  • Inspect perception foundational model to derive signal on data quality.
  • Implement or augment data pipeline to improve data quality.

Job requirements

  • Currently enrolled in a PhD program in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related quantitative field.
  • Experience programming in Python.
  • Practical experience training, fine-tuning, and evaluating deep learning models for computer vision or multimodal perception (e.g., using PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow).
  • Solid understanding of modern neural architectures (e.g., Vision Transformers, multi modal sensor encoders).
