Embedded Software Technical Lead & Manager, Simulation
Job description
Hardware Engineering is a diverse, and collaborative group of electrical, mechanical, reliability, software and vehicle engineers. We design, build, and perfect the products which are the eyes and ears of Waymo's autonomous driving technology, and integrate those products into vehicle platforms. We're looking for curious and talented teammates to keep us moving in the right direction.
The Embedded Simulation team enables Waymo to quickly and reliably scale the Waymo Driver across new vehicle & hardware platforms, and to accelerate development of our embedded and reliability software systems.
In this role, you will report to the Senior Director, R&D Software Engineering
Job responsibilities
- Lead & manage team responsible for embedded HIL/SIL testing and simulation.
- Set strategy for expansion of test & sim infrastructure to support new products and Waymo's scale.
- Develop Waymo internal graph-based simulation framework in C++ and improve simulation realism by implementing models of a vehicle and environmental conditions.
- Combine past logged data with the output of the models running in a loop for a more representative simulation.
- Integrate SIL and HIL simulation with CI/CD pipelines.
- Ensure test & sim infrastructure is highly available and reliable.
Job requirements
- Technical leadership of software teams.
- Strong knowledge of modern C++
- Experience designing, implementing and maintaining production software systems
