Who can apply?

  • Each posting names the degree level in its title — BS, BS/MS, MS/PhD, PhD or MBA. At review, BS-level postings included software engineering for Driver Refinement Foundations and Labeling, and Depot Automation.
  • The BS Software Engineer, Driver Refinement Foundations posting asks for a bachelor's in software engineering or a related field, strong C++, solid algorithms and data structures, software testing experience and comfort designing metrics.
  • The BS/MS Global Supply Management posting asks for enrollment in a BS or MS program in supply chain management, electrical or industrial engineering, operations research or a related technical field, plus should-cost modeling and Python or automation skills.
Easy to miss

Most of the Summer 2027 postings at review were MS/PhD or PhD roles. An undergraduate who applies to them is unlikely to meet the stated degree level; look for BS or BS/MS in the title.

Our editorial advice · not employer requirements

How to prepare a stronger application

Waymo's BS software posting asks for proficiency with unit, integration and regression testing. A class or personal project with a real test suite, and a sentence on what the tests caught, is direct evidence. This is our suggestion, not a Waymo rule.

Because you apply to roles one by one, rank them before applying. Pick the three where your coursework most closely matches the minimum qualifications rather than the three with the most appealing team names.
