Desirable

• The ML Platform team at Waymo provides a set of tools to support and automate the lifecycle of the machine learning workflow, including feature and experiment management, model development, debugging and evaluation, deployment, and monitoring
• These efforts have resulted in making machine learning more accessible to teams at Waymo, including Perception, Behavior Prediction, Planner, Routing, Maps and Research, ensuring greater degrees of consistency and repeatability, and addressing the "last mile" of getting models into production and managing them once they are in place
• We work with machine learning experts in all parts of the company and our collaborators across Alphabet
• You will focus on developing large-scale and efficient inference solutions for Waymo
• This is crucial to the development of Waymo Foundation Models for driving including evaluation, auto-labeling and distillation
