About the Role

This is a Summer Intern position focused on Machine Learning, specifically in the area of Simulation Realism (World Model) for autonomous driving.

Key Responsibilities

  • Implement, train, and evaluate generative models (such as diffusion models, flow matching, or autoregressive transformers) for video and physical world simulation.
  • Experiment with unified 3D/4D and spatiotemporal representations that generalize across diverse scenes, vehicle platforms, and sensor modalities.
  • Investigate conditioning, fine-tuning, or distillation methods to improve temporal consistency, physical realism, and inference speed for closed-loop simulation.
  • Partner with mentors and researchers across Waymo and frontier AI labs at Google to adapt foundation world models and translate research prototypes into Waymo’s simulation pipeline.

Requirements & Tech Stack

  • Currently pursuing an MS or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Robotics, or a related field.
  • Solid background in deep learning and computer vision.
  • Hands-on experience in modern generative modeling (e.g., diffusion models, flow matching, VAEs, or transformers).
  • Strong coding skills in Python.
  • Practical experience training and debugging models in PyTorch or JAX.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior research or projects in video generation, world models, or generalized 3D/4D scene representations.
  • Exposure to 3D computer vision, multi-view geometry, physical/geometric priors, or multimodal sensor data (Camera, LiDAR, Radar).
  • Contributions to open-source projects or publications in ML, vision, or robotics venues (e.g., CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICML).

Note: This is a hybrid onsite internship position.
