Waymo is looking to enhance developer productivity of onboard engineers to enable the entire organization to quickly scale and address emerging challenges in autonomous driving technology.
Requirements
- 3 years of experience in C++
- 2 years of experience working on a large-scale/high complexity system (supported by hundreds of engineers)
- 2 years of experience working on infrastructure work: building performant, easy to use, scalable systems and tools.
- 2 years in infrastructure/systems/performance domain optimizing end-to-end system for high performance
- 2 years of experience optimizing software systems using profile guided techniques
- Experience in large-scale evaluation techniques
- Experience in ML pipelines and workflows
Responsibilities
- Develop reliable, scalable, and maintainable systems to meet user needs, including accelerating large-scale simulation and eval, reinforcement learning-based fine-tuning pipeline, and analysis.
- Evolve and scale up the simulation and evaluation platform to accelerate the 'inner loop' of software development by 10X for onboard engineers (500+).
- Develop the ADV's modular architecture and frameworks to achieve low latency, high reproducibility and realism when simulating in our data centers, while maintaining high performance for on-car driving.
- Optimize system resource usage to simulation at scale in Cloud datacenters: minimizing CPU utilization and latency, minimizing RAM consumption, intelligently determining which computations should happen on CPU, GPU, and TPU.
- Collaborate to resolve compute performance bottlenecks throughout the ADV, simulator and analysis software stacks, ensuring end-to-end low latency for simulation and analysis.
- Develop necessary high scale performance evaluation, debugging and software change management processes.
