Make Wayve the experience that defines your career!
At Wayve, we are creating autonomy that propels the world forward. Our vision is realized through deep Embodied AI technology and advanced onboard software that enables vehicles to perceive and navigate complex real-world environments.
To support this mission, we are expanding our Verification & Release (V&R) group with a role focused on developing and scaling the system tests infrastructure—a critical enabler of product validation, quality assurance, and continuous software integration. This role offers the opportunity to work on a greenfield infrastructure with significant impact across Wayve’s software stack and testing pipeline.
The Role
In this role, you will take part in designing, implementing, and optimizing the infrastructure used for system verification and product validation of our embedded and robotic AI software. Your focus will be on automated software test infrastructure—enabling efficient, scalable, and reliable execution of system-level and integration tests.
You will collaborate closely with the onboard software, DevOps, test, and infrastructure teams to ensure the delivery of a highly automated, data-rich test pipeline with robust reporting, coverage tracking, and traceability.
This is a hands-on, high-impact engineering position focused on infrastructure depth, technical leadership within projects, and scalable system design.
Key Responsibilities
You are a technically strong software engineer who thrives in building infrastructure at scale. You bring experience working in cross-functional environments on system validation problems, and enjoy designing robust, automated systems that support large and dynamic software organizations.
