Waymo is looking to improve the safety and reliability of its autonomous driving technology by enhancing its testing and validation processes, particularly for off-nominal situations and fault scenarios.
Requirements
Experience with software development for robotics OR experience with software verification and validation for software running on robotic or safety critical systems
Experience in data analysis/modeling or software engineering using C/C++, Python and SQL
Experience in autonomous vehicles, robotics, assisted driving technology, or other safety critical systems
Responsibilities
Design, implement and validate metrics for testing the autonomous vehicle in off-nominal situations, such as after a fault occurs or when remote assistance is needed, across multiple platforms
Write reusable, high quality, software for analyzing simulation test results and be an enabler and advocate for automation
Lead cross-functionally to unblock development of scalable multi-platform testing, working with partner teams who develop the simulator or code running onboard the AV
Use your knowledge of autonomous vehicles, engineering and test strategy development to review and provide feedback on system requirements and feature validation plans
Other
In this hybrid role, you will report to a Technical Lead Manager, Behavior Test Engineering.
An advanced degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, or other relevant technical field OR equivalent practical experience involving perception or robotic systems
Solid written and verbal communication and experience contributing to projects spanning across multiple disciplines
8+ years of Engineering experience (graduate school and industry experience both count)
