El nombre de la empresa es Waze.

Entiendo que como se presenta a sí mismo, no quiere emplear su título de director general (CEO of Waze) y prefiere hacerlo de esta forma más informal:

"Soy XX, el jefe de Waze, y llevo liderando Waze desde principios de 2009"

Ejemplos de este uso:

Director/a General de Waze

Hello there! It would probably help to have some more context. The word "Waze," as it is in your sentence, appears written with a capital W, which indicates some kind of proper name. Waze can refer to the traffic and navigation app.
Now, if that is what the word refers to, then Wazer includes all users of the app (drivers, passengers, but also app developers). So, "Chief Wazer" would refer to the person in charge of making all decisions concerning the app.

Reference:

Ref.

Waze (Hebrew: ווייז‎, /weɪz/; formerly FreeMap Israel) is a GPS navigation software app owned by Google. It works on smartphones and tablet computers that have GPS support. It provides turn-by-turn navigation information and user-submitted travel times and route details, while downloading location-dependent information over a mobile telephone network. Waze describes its app as a community-driven GPS navigation app, which is free to download and use.

The Israeli company Waze Mobile developed the Waze software. Ehud Shabtai, Amir Shinar and Uri Levine founded the company. Two Israeli venture capital firms, Magma and Vertex Ventures Israel, and an early-stage American venture capital firm, Bluerun Ventures, provided funding. Waze Mobile was acquired by Google in June 2013.
