Wayve is developing next-generation autonomous driving technology, to enable autonomous transportation services
Our team is the first in the world to use autonomous vehicles on public roads using end-to-end deep learning
With our multi-national world-class technical team, we’re building things differently
We don’t think it’s scalable to tell an algorithm how to drive through hand-coded rules and expensive HD maps
Instead, we believe that using experience and data will allow our algorithms to be more intelligent: capable of easily adapting to new environments
As Director of Engineering, you will lead and expand the Validation division within our Engineering organization, reporting to the VP of Engineering
This pivotal role is essential for the commercialization of our technology and, consequently, the company's success
Your efforts will be crucial in transforming an impressive demo into a globally trusted product for OEMs and millions of their customers worldwide
Furthermore, as the industry transitions from programmatic to fully learned autonomy, you will play a leading role in establishing AI trust and safety by meeting AV industry requirements through AI-powered simulation and scenario generation technology
Define and own the technical vision, strategy and metrics for your area, ensuring its teams and the rest of Wayve are aligned and galvanised
Design and grow a Validation engineering organisation covering model releases and system level validation
Cover all our AV product requirements (safety, utility, comfort) on a set of reference platforms with automated tests
Partner with Product management leadership to converge quickly on which Validation methods are technically feasible, practical and efficient
Help our Application Engineering teams scale our Validation from reference platforms to specific OEM vehicle implementations
Find architectural and implementation gaps throughout our systems – including AI models, data quality, measurement accuracy, simulator reality gaps
Drive requirements into our tooling development – simulators, generative AI, scenario understanding
Partner with the senior leadership team to maintain a culture of impact, performance, and health
Build technical capabilities across the division and develop talented engineers as Wayve grows. Build resilient and reliable systems, teams and individuals
Work closely with team members to develop career plans and growth trajectories based on each individual’s strengths and weaknesses and their own aspirations
