We are seeking a passionate Senior Software Engineer to join the Waymo UX Depot team. In this role, you will build client-facing interfaces and core backend infrastructure powering the mobile and web applications that Waymo and enterprise partners use to manage autonomous vehicle fleets. Key responsibilities include enhancing mobile apps for operational personnel, scaling real-time fleet data collection tools, and developing intuitive web views to control complex depot operations.

You will design scalable, highly reliable end-to-end systems that serve as the backbone for mission-critical infrastructure, supporting market expansion while ensuring rigorous data integrity across UI and backend services. While this is primarily a backend role within a frontend-focused team, you will create and update backend services, manage Backends for Frontends (BFF), and establish necessary infrastructure. You should also be comfortable working across the full stack—including frontend code to verify solution accuracy—with training provided as needed.

You will:

• Build and evolve mission-critical tools and systems that allow Waymo to scale and serve new markets.
• Solve hard real-world problems related to event / incident response.
• Collaborate with Product, UX, and other engineers to design and develop internal user-facing products.
• Ship solutions to novel problems that arise in a fast-paced environment

You have:

• BS degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
• 5+ years of backend/infra experience

We prefer:

• Backend experience in Kotlin, Java, Python, Go, C++ or similar.
• Familiarity with Google infrastructure (e.g. Borg, Protocol Buffers, Spanner).
• Experience with engineering artifacts, reliability monitoring and alerting, documentation, integration testing, production hygiene, and support processes.
