- Knowledge of open- and closed-loop HiL replay using dSPACE or other emulators.
- Proficiency with CI/CD tooling such as GitLab CI, Buildkite, and Bazel.
- Experience with testing dashboards, logging, and reporting infrastructure such as Grafana, Looker, Datadog, and JIRA.
- Experience developing or testing automotive software at embedded and system levels.
- Experience with autonomous vehicles, ADAS, or related technologies is desirable.
- Experience improving test methods, safety procedures, or operational efficiency is desirable.
- Familiarity with Git, Buildkite, or similar version-control and data-management systems is desirable.
- Familiarity with Cursor, Claude Code, or similar agentic AI coding tools is desirable.
Benefits
- Full-time role based in the Leonberg office.

About Wayve
Wayve builds end-to-end autonomous driving software—the vehicle-agnostic Wayve AI Driver—that runs on onboard compute and native sensors, licensed to automakers and fleet operators. Its platform spans ADAS and higher autonomy (L2+/L3 to robotaxi) and is designed to generalize across vehicle types and geographies. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in London, it tests its models across Europe, North America, and Japan, with a U.S. base in Sunnyvale, CA.
