A 2027 summer PhD internship in Waymo software engineering focused on generative world models for autonomous-driving simulation. The intern will develop controllable generation, test-time compute, multimodal conditioning, and critic-guided diffusion/flow steering, then evaluate realism and long-tail scenarios on TPU clusters. The posting seeks a current PhD student in computer science, machine learning, robotics or a related field with strong Python and JAX/PyTorch skills and research in controllable generative modeling or multimodal spatiotemporal representation learning. First-author publications and multi-agent simulation work are preferred.
