Job description

Waymo's software reliability engineers (SRE) are responsible for the stable operation of Waymo's fully autonomous systems and supporting infrastructure. As an SRE, you combine software and systems engineering techniques to build and run large-scale, fault-tolerant, reliable systems. You focus on optimizing existing systems, building new infrastructure, eliminating manual, error-prone or time-consuming work through automation, and ensuring products that are fast, efficient, and effective.

This role follows a hybrid work schedule and reports to the Tech Lead Manager.

You will:

  • Collaborate with other engineers to build reliable systems for the ride hailing service, real time communications between cars and offboard infrastructure, and more
  • Manage end-to-end availability and performance by measuring the system performance and developing automated solutions to improve it
  • Get involved in the whole lifecycle of services - from inception and design, through deployment, operation and refinement
  • Write designs and implement software to improve system architecture or telemetry, prevent outages, or reduce mean time to mitigation, in defense of service reliability
  • Act as frontline defense for the ride hailing service, participating in a sustainable oncall incident response team and practicing blameless retrospectives

You have:

  • 2+ years of experience writing clean, efficient code in C++, Java and/or Python
  • An interest and enthusiasm for distributed systems, production engineering, and rapidly developing transportation system technologies
  • Passion for distributed systems, rapidly evolving technologies behind transportation systems & autonomous driving, and production engineering
    in monitoring, debugging, automation, and scaling up systems
  • A Bachelors degree in a relevant field or similar experience

We prefer:

  • Demonstrated ability as an individual contributor engineer, contributing to scalable, high quality software
  • 3+ years of industry experience
  • Bachelors of Computer Science (or similar)
