Marketplace Platform, TLM

The Marketplace team builds the core decision systems that keep Waymo running smoothly. They design the algorithms that match riders to vehicles, optimize routing, balance supply and demand, forecast rider demand, and power dynamic pricing. Their work ensures the fleet stays efficient, riders get fast pickups, and the AV network operates safely and profitably across cities.

Our team functions as the core intelligence for the Waymo platform, designing and implementing the sophisticated algorithms for rider vehicle matching, dynamic pricing, efficient routing, and predictive supply demand balancing. Their work ensures riders are connected with the optimal Waymo vehicle efficiently, safely, and with minimized wait times.

You will:

• Lead a growing team of 5-6 junior and senior engineers to implement and scale Waymo’s Marketplace Platform and Infrastructure
• Developing ML infrastructure for automatically training and deploying sophisticated optimization and prediction ML models to make real-time decisions for pricing, matching, and positioning. 
• Developing experimentation, monitoring and analysis infrastructure for analyzing ongoing deployed models.
• Developing simulation infrastructure for all marketplace optimization and ML model development and evaluation

You have:

• BS degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
• 6+ years of experience programming in backend coding languages
• 2+ years of people management experience
• Technical leader experience
• 3+ years of experience building productionized ML models

We prefer:

• Experience in C++
• MS in Computer Science, or equivalent practical experience
• 5+ years of experience with ML design and ML infrastructure (e.g., model deployment, model evaluation, data processing, debugging, fine tuning).
• Prior experience building and deploying various ML models such as reinforcement learning
