- You will take on technical leadership for part of Waymo One's backend systems. The exact team will depend on your interests and qualifications, but we have teams working on systems such as vehicle scheduling, dynamic pricing, partner APIs, and experimentation.
- You will build a solid long-term technical foundation while also fielding the near-term needs of Waymo One. Our service is still early, and we need an adaptable leader who can reprioritize on the fly.
- This is primarily a technical role and does not require people management, though we could consider that if the candidate is interested.
- Technical lead of a significant backend effort, ideally with several moving parts
- Strong ability to work with other teams, including non-engineering teams. You should be able to negotiate technical solutions that match product needs and timelines
- Working across many different parts of a complex stack, not just focusing on a single piece of software
- An ideal candidate is seen as a "fixer" in their prior roles, someone whom leadership tapped to drop into projects and turn them around or clarify focus
- Ability to dive into a complex backend system and make sense of it, including live debugging and learning the codebase
- C++ and distributed systems experience
- Experience working at another transportation company or similar consumer-oriented experience
