Salary

$209,700 - $311,400 per year

Apply on Wayve

Description

We build the embodied intelligence that moves real vehicles safely, and the ecosystem a billion machines will run on in the future.

You’ll join the Search & Agents squad in Sunnyvale. We build the search, scenario mining and agentic tooling that lets anyone find the right driving scenarios and turn them into tests without writing SQL.

Your day-to-day:

  • Build fullstack features across search, scenario mining and agentic tooling.
  • Talk to model developers and researchers, and define how you will measure success before building.
  • Take the scenario mining framework from prototype to production scale.
  • Extend our agent tooling so agents can run evaluation workflows end to end.
  • Work with large-scale data systems (Databricks, Spark) in an established codebase.
  • Own the reliability and maintainability of what you ship.

What you’ll be working on:

  • Build fullstack features across search, scenario mining, agentic tooling, and the web applications our users work in to curate scenarios and build test suites.
  • Work directly with users to understand pain points, then define and measure what success looks like (adoption, time saved, reliability) before you build.
  • Ship high-quality software with strong attention to reliability, performance and maintainability.
  • Contribute to architectural decisions that scale across the team’s products.
  • Use AI tools to improve how we build, from speeding up development to refining team workflows and product quality.

Essential:

  • Strong development skills in Python, TypeScript, and JavaScript, with experience using React or similar front-end frameworks
  • Strong SQL skills with a solid understanding of database design and optimisation
  • Experience designing and building production-level fullstack systems and reliable, high-performance APIs
  • Track record of building robust, maintainable systems and applying engineering best practices
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, including working effectively across time zones
  • Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced, high-context, ambiguous environment
  • You are a power user of AI development tools and have a mindset for building AI-augmented workflows

Desirable:

  • Experience with search, embeddings or retrieval systems
  • Experience with the Databricks platform, and large-scale data processing with Spark or similar
  • Experience with job orchestration frameworks such as Flyte
  • Experience building agentic or LLM-powered developer tools (e.g. MCP servers)
  • Experience building tools for technical users (ML, robotics, infrastructure)
  • Experience with scientific data visualisation or complex data interfaces

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
  • Learning and development budgets with support for training, conferences and growth
  • Comprehensive benefits including health insurance, dental, enhanced maternity and paternity leave, retirement or pension where applicable, access to therapists, wellbeing partnerships, team socials and more
