Skills: PythonWaymo is an autonomous driving technology company with the mission to be the world's most trusted driver. Since its start as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009, Waymo has focused on building the Waymo Driver—The World's Most Experienced Driver™—to improve access to mobility while saving thousands of lives now lost to traffic crashes. The Waymo Driver powers Waymo’s fully autonomous ride-hail service and can also be applied to a range of vehicle platforms and product use cases. The Waymo Driver has provided over ten million rider-only trips, enabled by its experience autonomously driving over 100 million miles on public roads and tens of billions in simulation across 15+ U.S. states. 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. The subteam for this role will be: The Model Eval team has a lot of projects that evolve quickly. We will help the Intern find a project that matches their skill set during the internship. Possible projects include: Eval pipeline optimization (orchestration level): Finding opportunities to decrease e2e execution cost by reducing overhead or increasing parallelism in jobs Eval pipeline optimization (model level): Improving eval workload efficiency by improving exported model efficiency in CPU or TPU export configurations The ability to use agents for learning and implementation, and the wisdom to know when each is appropriate We prefer: Distributed systems analysis or optimization Model performance techniques like sharding, qu…Sign in to see the original postingBrowse more developer jobs on RoleBurst
