Job description

The RO Performance Team is accountable for the largest metrics system deployment in the AV industry. The team manages data pipelines that monitor Waymo’s AV fleet in the real world at various latencies: from minutes to hours; supporting critical business decisions for deployments in new markets and identifying emergent business critical challenges. In addition, the same pipeline technologies are deployed for the virtual world to measure key outcomes from Waymo’s massive scale simulations, generating insights to support new Driver releases. Important objectives for the next couple of years include:

The team works closely with many other teams such as: metrics development teams including…

Job responsibilities

  • Be a part of the Event Insights sub-team, Once metric events, e.g., a hard brake occurred, are minted from heavy logs processing pipelines, an event lifecycle emerges where such events may get sent to other systems for…
  • Clustering: Work on creation of a dynamic event clustering product to produce event clusters at low latency for rapid understanding of emerging issues during new deployments of the Waymo Driver in simulation or in the…
  • Storage & APIs: Events need to be stored and queried by different downstream systems. Consumption APIs include pull or push based paradigms. Labels received from human triage or VLMs update existing events.
  • Low Latency Orchestration: Gathering further event insights requires interaction with other systems at Waymo such as for human triage or large VLM inference.
  • Visualization: Work closely with partner UI teams to ensure that event insights can be delivered to end consumers and provide value for understanding the Waymo Driver’s performance.

Job requirements

  • 5+ years of full-time software engineering experience, or a quantitative PhD with 2+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • C++ proficiency
