The role
This is a high-impact technical leadership role and a key founding member position at the centre of Wayve’s Robotaxi launch, providing a unique opportunity to set direction and definition for the autonomy performance function.
We are specifically looking for product-oriented engineers who will own the autonomy performance bar that determines whether the product is ready for the public and stays great release over release. You’ll turn messy real-world driving signals into trusted metrics, a prioritised funnel of issues, and cross-team execution that lands measurable improvements in production.
This is an opportunity to define “performance” for an end-to-end learned driving system where traditional AV playbooks don’t translate cleanly, with visibility and influence across the teams
