Waymo is an autonomous driving technology company with the mission to be the world's most trusted driver. Since its start as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009, Waymo has focused on building the Waymo Driver—The World's Most Experienced Driver™—to improve access to mobility while saving thousands of lives now lost to traffic crashes. The Waymo Driver powers Waymo’s fully autonomous ride-hail service and can also be applied to a range of vehicle platforms and product use cases. The Waymo Driver has provided over ten million rider-only trips, enabled by its experience autonomously driving over 100 million miles on public roads and tens of billions in simulation across 15+ U.S. states.
The ML Data Infrastructure and Inference Platform team owns the Data as well as the Data infrastructure for all ML Flywheels at Waymo. We do this via a planet scale centralized feature store for all ML training and evaluation, the feature extraction framework as well the inference platform for generating the data via bulk and online inferences. The objective of the team is to deliver data necessary for all our onboard as well Foundation Models to make the ML Flywheel successful and in turn lead to the successful scaling of Waymo. The team is highly collaborative and closely works with all modeling teams within Waymo.
