Staff data scientist on Waymo's Product Data Science team, working on the marketplace behind its autonomous ride-hail service. The job is largely model building: predicting conversion, wait times and retention, forecasting demand and supply, estimating a vehicle's value in different positions, and developing reinforcement learning models that tune pricing, matching and positioning. Experiments must be designed and evaluated, and findings presented to leadership. The posting asks for eight or more years applying ML to production problems, Python and SQL, deployed neural networks, and real-world reinforcement learning; ride-hailing or marketplace experience and TensorFlow or JAX are preferred.
