Job Description:

Waymo is an autonomous driving technology company with the mission to be the world's most trusted driver. Since its start as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009, Waymo has focused on building the Waymo Driver—The World's Most Experienced Driver™—to improve access to mobility while saving thousands of lives now lost to traffic crashes. The Waymo Driver powers Waymo's fully autonomous ride-hail service and can also be applied to a range of vehicle platforms and product use cases. The Waymo Driver has provided over ten million rider-only trips, enabled by its experience autonomously driving over 100 million miles on public roads and tens of billions in simulation across 15+ U.S. states. Waymo's cars may be self-driving, but the governance for the team executing its construction projects is steered by experts like you. Safety is our foundation and is at the heart of everything we do. As Waymo's Project Delivery PMO Lead you will own governance, be the conduit to the vendor PMO team, and continuously improve standards and processes for Waymo's Project Delivery Team in an extremely fast paced environment with a high degree of ambiguity. At every turn, process excellence, collaboration, and detailed cross-org communications are critical. This role follows a hybrid work schedule and reports to the Head of Project Delivery.

Job Responsibility:

  • Act as the primary liaison between the internal organization and the external vendor PMO, ensuring the vendor's project delivery methodologies align with internal corporate standards, compliance requirements, and strategic goals
  • Monitor and evaluate the external vendor PMO's performance against established Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Service Level Agreements (SLAs), conducting regular audits and performance reviews
  • Proactively identify cross-portfolio risks and serve as the ultimate point of escalation for critical issues that the external vendor PMO cannot resolve, facilitating solutions with internal executive stakeholders
  • Own program governance: milestone gates, design review cadences, change control protocols, and decision logs that create accountability
  • Continuously improve processes and standards based on lessons learned and team feedback
  • maintain version control and ensure adoption
  • Consolidate data from the vendor PMO to generate transparent, high-level dashboards and executive status reports detailing portfolio health, milestones, financials, and critical path analysis for internal leadership

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, Business Administration, or a closely related field
  • A minimum of 7–10 years of progressive experience in construction project/ program management, with at least 3 years in a PMO leadership or portfolio management role
  • Proven track record of directly managing, auditing, or partnering with external construction management firms, general contractors, or outsourced PMO teams on large-scale projects and delivering complex, technology‑driven projects or programs to establish governance
  • Exceptional executive-level communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to bridge the gap between technical construction jargon and corporate business objectives
  • Strong command of project management frameworks, construction lifecycles, and risk mitigation strategies, with the ability to enforce quality control over vendor deliverables
  • A strong understanding of and experience using AI tools to enhance governance, and improve project workflows

Nice to have:

  • Professional Certifications: Project Management Professional (PMP), Program Management Professional (PgMP), or Certified Construction Manager (CCM) credentials
  • Advanced Software Proficiency: Hands-on experience with enterprise-level construction management and PMO software (e.g., Procore, Primavera P6, e-Builder, Planview, SiteTracker, or Smartsheet)
  • Advanced Degree: Master's degree in Construction Management or a Master of Business Administration (MBA)
  • Contractual & Legal Knowledge: Familiarity with standard construction contract models (such as AIA documents) and a foundational understanding of construction law, permitting, and dispute resolution
  • Specialized Sector Experience: Prior experience overseeing projects with Electric Vehicles and Electrical Infrastructure Upgrades
  • Change Management Experience: Certifications or proven experience in organizational change management (e.g., Prosci) to help internal teams adapt to new vendor-driven processes or technologies
What we offer:
  • Health and wellness
  • Financial wellness
  • Flexibility and time off
  • Discretionary annual bonus program
  • Equity incentive plan
  • Generous Company benefits program
