Software Engineering builds the brains of Waymo’s fully autonomous driving technology. Our software allows the Waymo Driver to perceive the world around it, make the right decision for every situation, and deliver people safely to their destinations. We think deeply and solve complex technical challenges in areas like robotics, perception, decision-making and deep learning, while collaborating with hardware and systems engineers. If you’re a software engineer or researcher who’s curious and passionate about Level 4 autonomous driving, we’d like to meet you.

Waymo interns work with leaders in the industry on projects that deliver significant impact to the company. We believe learning is a two-way street: applying your knowledge while providing you with opportunities to expand your skillset. Interns are an important part of our culture and our recruiting pipeline. Join us at Waymo for a fun and rewarding internship!

You will:

• Design state-of-the-art, multi-modality and multi-task Perception models
• Code in Python / C++
• Train and evaluate the model on large scale datasets

You have:

• Currently enrolled in a PhD program in Computer Science, Robotics, or a similar technical field of study
• Experience solving computer vision problems using Machine Learning with Tensorflow, JAX or equivalent tools
• Ability to collaborate within and across teams
• Strong experience programming in Python with robust and efficient code

We prefer:

• Strong track record of high quality ML research, for example demonstrated by conference publications in venues such as CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, ICML, NeurIPS, ICLR, etc.
• Experience with object detection, instance segmentation, or multiple-object tracking
• Experience programming with C++

Note: This will be a hybrid onsite internship position. We will accept resumes on a rolling basis until the role is filled. To be in consideration for multiple roles, you will need to apply to each one individually - please apply to the top 3 roles you are interested in.
