Full Job Description
In this hybrid role, you will report to a Senior Director of Product.

You will:
  • Own the roadmap for Pickup and Dropoff (PUDO) Systems - the infrastructure and APIs that operate as the 'glue' between the user experience, the vehicle / autonomy stack, and our servers.
  • Drive the development of many of our cross-stack features, such as the boarding sequence (communication between the vehicle, riders' phones, and/or the cloud), handling off-nominal scenarios, customizing our PUDO platform for goods delivery, and more
  • Translate company-level objectives to team-level outcomes and build a product roadmap to achieve those outcomes, backed by data and comprehensive industry understanding
  • Collaborate with UX design, UX research, and engineering to translate complex rider needs into simple, elegant product solutions
  • Lead cross-functional efforts across multiple engineering teams, marketing, business, regulatory, etc. to drive product decisions from conception to launch

You have:
  • 5+ years Product Management experience
  • A well-rounded mix of product development skills (e.g. user experience, analytics, engineering depth) combined with strong product sense and exemplary execution
  • Demonstrated success in an innovative, fast-paced environment, characterized by excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, a growth mindset for product exploration, and navigating ambiguity with a strong sense of independence
  • Experience partnering with UX teams to ship best-in-class consumer experiences
  • Strong technical foundation. The ideal candidate will have a robust understanding of the hardware and software systems underpinning our autonomous vehicles and naturally thrive working with world-class software engineers.

We prefer:
  • Degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field (or previous experience working as an engineer)
  • Experience working on consumer-facing robotics products or other highly technical HW/SW systems
  • Strong data analysis skills (SQL, etc) with the aptitude to dive deep to investigate issues and extract insights to inform product decisions
  • Domain knowledge across the transportation, mobility, and/or autonomous vehicle industries

Travel requirements:
  • Periodic travel (1-2 weeks per quarter) to Waymo markets and/or engineering offices (including Warsaw, PL)
