Hybrid
Founded in 2017, Wayve is the leading developer of Embodied AI technology. Our advanced AI software and foundation models enable vehicles to perceive, understand, and navigate any complex environment, enhancing the usability and safety of automated driving systems.
Our vision is to create autonomy that propels the world forward. Our intelligent, mapless, and hardware-agnostic AI products are designed for automakers, accelerating the transition from assisted to automated driving.
In our fast-paced environment big problems ignite us—we embrace uncertainty, leaning into complex challenges to unlock groundbreaking solutions. We aim high and stay humble in our pursuit of excellence, constantly learning and evolving as we pave the way for a smarter, safer future.
At Wayve, your contributions matter. We value diversity, embrace new perspectives, and foster an inclusive work environment; we back each other to deliver impact.
Make Wayve the experience that defines your career!
As Director of Platform Management for Simulation, Evaluation & Validation, you will lead the overall product vision and director for the platforms that Wayve uses to develop, evaluate, and validate the AI Driver. This includes open and closed loop simulation platforms, the evaluation test platform, synthetic data production, critical event pipelines, validation, and the workflows that connect them.
You will directly lead and indirectly influence sub team platform leads across Simulation, Evaluation, Data, and Validation to convert a complex set of cross-cutting initiatives into a single, opinionated product strategy. The job is part developer-tools PM (your users are engineers and scientists who will tell you immediately when something is slow, wrong, or in the way), part platform PM (your roadmap has to compose across simulators, datasets, evaluation, and triage), and part safety-systems PM (the outputs gate releases that put cars on real roads).
You will help shape and set vision for how our tools and services should function and work in an AV2.0 context - a Wayve-pioneered approach to both the driving stack and offline development.
