FRONTEND DEVELOPER | SVILUPPATORE FRONTEND | SOFTWARE ENGINEER

About us 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 intelligent, mapless, and hardware-agnostic AI products are designed for automakers, accelerating the transition from assisted to automated driving. We value diversity, embrace new perspectives, and foster an inclusive work environment; The roleAs a software engineer in Wayve's Core Simulation team, you will help develop the simulation system used to evaluate and improve Wayve's driving intelligence. Rather than testing independently specified modules, we need to reproduce the behaviour of a learned driving system across a complex combination of sensor data, model inference, routing, control and vehicle dynamics. This is a hands-on software engineering role working across C++ and Python. You will take ownership of scoped features and integrations, working closely with engineers across Simulation, Robotics, Autonomy, Evaluation, Platform and Data to make simulation accurate, reliable, scalable and useful to its users. Challenges you will ownDevelop and maintain production-quality components within Wayve's simulation system using modern C++ and Python. Support different simulation configurations and ensure components interact correctly across applicable workflows. Investigate differences between on-road and simulated execution, identifying issues across data, inference and simulated components. Improve simulation reproducibility, reliability and debuggability through automated testing, observability and better developer tooling. Profile and improve simulator performance, helping us run increasingly large evaluation workloads efficiently. Contribute to technical designs and help evolve the quality and maintainability of the simulation codebase. About youEssentialProfessional experience developing, delivering and maintaining production software in a collaborative engineering environment. Strong software development skills in C++ and Python, with depth in at least one and the ability to work effectively in both. Relevant experience in simulation, robotics, autonomous systems or similarly complex systems involving multiple interacting software components. Good understanding of software and data-oriented design, including how to build code that is maintainable, reusable and extensible. Experience debugging complex systems and reasoning about interfaces, data flows, timing and failure modes. Understanding of common software performance issues and the ability to make pragmatic design trade-offs. Ability to independently deliver scoped features, communicate progress clearly and raise risks or blockers early. Experience using GenAI development tools, such as coding assistants or agents, to improve productivity while carefully reviewing, testing and validating their output. Experience with middleware or integrating components across complex software systems. Experience working with sensor data such as camera, radar, lidar or GNSS, including modelling uncertainty or noise. Experience integrating machine-learning inference into production systems. Experience with performance profiling, observability or debugging distributed systems. This is a full-time role based in our office in London.
