EMobility Deployment Lead at Waymo in London, United Kingdom, UK

Our vehicles drive themselves, but you will be the driving force behind our charging infrastructure strategy. In this high-impact, strategic role, you will oversee the rapid, high-volume deployment of EV charging infrastructure while providing end-to-end operational oversight for our network. You will establish a scaled, repeatable process for the entire deployment lifecycle including site selection, design, and construction while managing ongoing asset maintenance, energy optimization, and lifecycle planning.

This role follows a hybrid work schedule and reports to the Director of Global Workplace & eMobility

You will:

• End-to-End Infrastructure Deployment: Oversee the hyper-accelerated planning, design, utility interconnection, and construction delivery of EV charging stations (with a heavy focus on high-power DC Fast Chargers) across global multi-site portfolios, driving schedule compression without sacrificing safety
• Rapid-Deployment Standardization: Develop modular, prefabricated site archetypes and standardized construction playbooks in the US to enable immediate, turn-key local execution and repeatable regional rollouts.
  Oversee Rapid Deployment Supplier Standards: Spearhead the evaluation, qualification, and operational launch of new international equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and component suppliers, ensuring compliance with global and domestic production standards
• US-Based Programming Blueprint: Design and anchor the primary technology, hardware specifications, and programming protocols within a centralized US-based framework, exporting this blueprint globally to ensure plug-and-play compatibility and operational uniformity
• Supply Chain Resilience: Mitigate global logistics risks by establishing dual-sourcing strategies, secure component pipelines, and localized assembly partnerships to safeguard rapid deployment schedules
• Stakeholder & Vendor Management: Act as the primary liaison with utility companies, government agencies, and internal cross-functional partners (e.g., Facilities, IT, Finance, Legal). Oversee vendor teams responsible for project delivery, maintenance programs, and financing
• Reporting, Policy, & Compliance: Monitor industry trends, relevant policies, and electrical standards. Establish KPIs, analyze charging utilization data, and create comprehensive reports for executive leadership to measure environmental impact and system performance.
