Waymo AI Jobs & Careers

Waymo is the world's first and most experienced autonomous driving company, operating commercial robotaxi services that have delivered over 20 million fully driverless rides to the public. A subsidiary of Alphabet, Waymo currently operates in Phoenix, the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Austin, and Miami, completing over 450,000 rides per week as of late 2025 and has logged more than 200 million miles on public roads driven fully autonomously. Waymo's 6th-generation Driver, which began fully autonomous operations in February 2026, represents a dramatic leap in efficiency: it reduces the total sensor count by 42% compared to the previous generation, using 13 cameras, four lidars, and six radar units while delivering superior perception and driving performance. The company announced plans to expand into 10 additional U.S. cities in 2026 and confirmed London and Tokyo as its first international markets. Waymo raised a $16 billion funding round that valued the company at $126 billion, underscoring investor confidence in autonomous driving reaching mainstream adoption. The company aims to reach one million rides per week by the end of 2026 and is scaling U.S.-based manufacturing to meet fleet demand. For robotics engineers, ML researchers, and systems engineers, Waymo offers the unparalleled opportunity to work on the most commercially deployed autonomous driving technology in the world, solving one of AI's grand challenges at a scale no other company has achieved.
