  • Collaborate with world-class researchers and engineers to push the boundaries of AI, contributing significantly to the evolution of autonomous driving technology.
  • Influence the future of autonomous vehicles, helping to shape a smarter, safer, and more efficient transportation ecosystem.

About You

You are an applied scientist with a deep understanding of AI/ML and a specific focus on TinyML. You thrive in environments where innovation meets real-world application, and you are driven by the desire to see your research make a tangible impact on autonomous technologies.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of ML engineering / applied science experience in an industrial research environment
  • Experience in GenAI, EfficientAI, LLMs, World Models, Reinforcement Learning, or Autonomous Driving
  • Passion for working in a team on research ideas that have real-world impact
  • Strong programming skills in Python, with experience in deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch, numpy, pandas, etc.
  • Several years of experience working on machine learning algorithms and systems
  • A good grasp of machine learning literature
  • Comfortable working with large quantities of image and video data
  • Good insight into the practical aspects of training, validation, testing, and metrics for deep learning features/models
  • MS or PhD Machine Learning, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience

Desirable

  • Track record of publications at top-tier conferences like NeurIPS, CVPR, ICRA, ICLR, CoRL etc.
  • Strong software engineering experience in Python and other relevant languages (e.g., C++ and CUDA)
  • Experience bringing an ML research concept through to production and at scale

We understand that everyone has a unique set of skills and experiences and that not everyone will meet all of the requirements listed above. If you're passionate about self-driving cars and think you have what it takes to make a positive impact on the world, we encourage you to apply.

This is a full-time role based in our office in London. At Wayve, we want the best of all worlds, so we operate a hybrid working policy that combines time together in our offices and workshops to fuel innovation, culture, relationships, and learning, and time spent working from home.
