Our Systems Engineering team works together to blend software and hardware systems in groundbreaking new ways.

  • Find ways to automate testing by writing scripts or unit tests, or leveraging the Waymo simulation infrastructure
  • Identify system areas which need additional test coverage, propose test plans to provide coverage, and implement additional tests to ongoing test programs

You have:

  • High level AV domain knowledge that will allow the candidate to hit the ground running and accelerate ongoing and new platform development projects from day one
  • Experience leading a team of vendor test engineers and effectively developing their capability to effectively take on new and complex tasks
  • 5 years of experience in Motion Control / Vehicle Dynamics testing, simulation, and test automation
