## Description

We build the embodied intelligence that moves real vehicles safely, and the ecosystem a billion machines will run on in the future. Very few people in AI can say this. Every role here, whatever the team, plugs into that.

As a Staff Platform Engineer, you'll help build, operate and improve the cloud platforms, build systems and continuous integration and delivery infrastructure that support Wayve's software development lifecycle. Working as part of a global team, you'll create reliable, scalable, secure and efficient environments for software development, testing, deployment and release.

Your day-to-day tasks will include:

- Building, operating and improving cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines and build systems that support development, testing and production, primarily in Azure.

- Developing and maintaining Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g. Terraform and Ansible), automation and developer tooling for reliable, repeatable delivery.

- Operating and scaling CI/CD services, including build agents, runners, artifact storage, distributed execution, caching and containerised workloads.

- Implementing observability, monitoring system health, and troubleshooting infrastructure, pipeline, build and deployment issues.

- Optimising cloud systems for performance, reliability, security and cost efficiency.

- Working with engineering teams across Japan, the UK and the US to make sure platforms meet application needs and support scalable software delivery.

- Contributing to the DevOps support channel, incident response and root cause analysis, and reducing manual operations through automation.

Requirements:

- Strong troubleshooting, problem-solving, and communication skills.

- 8 years of experience in DevOps, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, build engineering, developer infrastructure, or related engineering roles.

- Experience with one or more of the following:

- At least one cloud platform, such as Azure, AWS, or GCP.

- Infrastructure-as-Code tools, such as Terraform and Ansible.

- CI/CD platforms such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Buildkite, Azure DevOps, or similar.

- Build tooling and concepts including dependency management, caching, incremental builds, and reproducible builds.

- Networking, cloud architecture, system reliability, and secure access controls.

- Experience with Linux, Git, and shell scripting.

Desirable skills:

- Experience with build systems such as Bazel, Buildkite, or similar.

- Experience operating CI/CD infrastructure at scale, including distributed execution, caching, and artifact management.

- Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and container-based build or deployment environments.

- Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK.

- Understanding of software supply-chain security, secure build practices, and cloud security best practices.

- Experience supporting large, multi-language codebases or distributed systems.

- Experience improving cloud cost efficiency and operational resilience.

Benefits:

- Salaries benchmarked against the market annually

- Meaningful equity, sharing in the ownership and long-term success of Wayve

- Relocation support and visa sponsorship where applicable

- Hybrid working, core hours and the chance to work hands-on in vehicle workshops and labs
