Role Overview
The Waymo Sustainability Team oversees the company’s environmental strategy and implementation. Our goal is to empower everyone to move sustainably by expanding access to shared electric vehicles and supporting more walkable, bikeable, and transit-rich communities. To achieve this, we advance sustainability programs that maximize environmental outcomes, conduct technoeconomic environmental analyses across our fleet, and work cross-functionally across the company to implement sustainable practices throughout our product and vehicle lifecycles. Additionally, our team designs environmental standards across the value chain and executes programs that support regulatory compliance, build alignment with key stakeholders, and earn trust in the communities we serve.
In this role, you will report to our Head of Sustainability & Environment.
Responsibilities
- Drive sustainability programs to meet international environmental standards and support sustainability policy goals across a variety of functional areas of the value chain (clean energy, fleet, hardware, transit integration, etc.)
- Manage environmental compliance against regulatory requirements, drive environmental mitigations, and quantify positive sustainability impacts
- Collaborate with internal teams (engineering, operations, product) to integrate sustainability into their work as well as engaging with external stakeholders (NGOs, government agencies, industry partners) on sustainability initiatives.
- Manage international specific compliance, reporting, and verification requirements
- Communicate Waymo's sustainability efforts to internal and external audiences via presentations, reports, communications and marketing, comment letters and policy briefs.
- Support GHG inventory and mitigation models to support international expansion and ensure environmental claims are audit-ready.
Qualifications
- Strategic expertise implementing environmental compliance and sustainability programs across a complex value chain within a highly regulated industry
- A proven ability to synthesize complex environmental standards into actionable compliance roadmaps for international transportation ecosystems and large-scale fleet operations.
- The vision to develop and execute comprehensive sustainability strategies that align with long-term corporate goals by defining clear targets, identifying key initiatives, and measuring ongoing progress.
- Strong project management skills to lead sustainability initiatives from conception to completion across a variety of functional areas (clean energy, fleet, hardware, transit integration, etc.)
- The technical acumen to draft the specific requirements and frameworks needed to quantify and measure Waymo’s environmental performance and net benefits.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to seamlessly engage with diverse internal stakeholders (such as engineering and commercial teams) as well as external partners (including NGOs, government agencies, and industry peers).
