Director, Systems Integration, Diagnostics
Waymo · Mountain View, CA, USA
About this role
## About Waymo Waymo is an autonomous driving technology company with a mission to be the world’s most trusted driver. Since starting as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009, Waymo has focused on building the Waymo Driver—an experienced autonomous driving system—to improve access to mobility while saving thousands of lives lost to traffic crashes. The Waymo Driver powers Waymo’s fully autonomous ride-hail service and can be applied across a range of vehicle platforms and product use cases. The Waymo Driver has provided over ten million rider-only trips, enabled by experience autonomously driving over 100 million miles on public roads and tens of billions in simulation across 15+ U.S. states. ## Team Hardware Engineering is a collaborative group of electrical, mechanical, reliability, software, and vehicle engineers. We design, build, and perfect the products that are the eyes and ears of Waymo’s autonomous driving technology, and integrate those products into vehicle platforms. This role follows a hybrid work schedule and reports to **Director, Hardware Systems**. ## What you will do - Define and execute Waymo’s global strategy for systems integration, diagnostics, vehicle commissioning, and field engineering across multiple vehicle platforms. - Lead, scale, and mentor a multidisciplinary engineering organization encompassing Systems Integration, Diagnostics, Scaled Commissioning, and Field Engineering. - Own end-to-end systems integration and bring-up of new Waymo Driver hardware and OEM vehicle platforms—spanning compute, sensor pipelines, vehicle networks, and system-level HIL testbeds—from early bench prototypes through autonomous fleet readiness. - Drive the architecture and development of next-generation diagnostics infrastructure, automated tooling, and telemetry to support high-volume manufacturing and fleet operations. - Establish, mature, and scale vehicle commissioning: end-of-line test, provisioning, calibration, and more at manufacturing facilities and service centers worldwide. - Collaborate cross-functionally with Hardware, Software, Systems Engineering, Manufacturing, Operations, and OEM partners to define integration requirements, triage complex system-level issues, and guide design-for-diagnostics and design-for-manufacturing feedback loops. ## What you have - BS/MS/PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field. - 10+ years of experience in systems engineering/integration, diagnostics, or integration for complex hardware/software systems (e.g., automotive, robotics, aerospace, defense). - 5+ years of experience in people management, with a proven track record leading and growing multidisciplinary engineering teams. - Proven track record leading full-system hardware/software bring-up, HIL testbed architecture, and base-vehicle interface integration (power, networking, actuation, and ECU software/OTA) across multiple concurrent programs. - Deep technical breadth across electrical, mechanical, and software domains, with experience in HW/SW co-design and system-level debugging. - Experience scaling products from early-stage prototyping and low-volume to high-volume manufacturing or commercial fleet operations. - Strong partner management skills, with experience navigating and influencing external partners or OEM organizations. ## We prefer - Direct experience in Autonomous Vehicle (AV), advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), automotive, in
