Senior Software Engineer, Fleet Management

The posting, as Wayve wrote it

Before the detail, here's the challenge you'd help us solve.

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.

Here’s what this particular role covers.

🛠️ About our Engineering Teams

Our Fleet Management team builds the platform that connects Wayve’s engineers and operators with a global fleet of autonomous vehicles and data-collection devices. From software deployment and vehicle health to robotaxi operations, our services give teams the visibility and control they need to operate confidently as the fleet grows.

You’ll join an early-stage team working across web applications, backend services, embedded APIs and cloud infrastructure. With multiple OEM integrations and vehicle configurations to support, you’ll help shape both the systems we build and the engineering practices behind them.

🧠 Your day-to-day

• Own meaningful projects from problem definition through design, implementation, deployment and production operation.
• Partner with Product, Research, Safety, Operations, SRE and Infrastructure to turn complex fleet needs into reliable services and intuitive tools.
• Contribute to architecture and planning, and validate ideas through prototypes.
• Write well-tested code and review changes with your peers.
• Make technical trade-offs that improve fleet visibility, reduce friction for users and keep systems dependable as deployments scale.
• Support other engineers’ growth through feedback and shared technical learning.

🧩 What you’ll be working on

• Reliable deployment workflows for software, AI models and configuration across vehicles that may be intermittently connected, including correctness, ordering and rollback.
• Services connecting Wayve vehicles with external dispatch systems to support robotaxi and remote autonomous operations.
• APIs and web interfaces that make vehicle state visible and help engineers diagnose issues quickly and confidently.
• Tools for exploring vehicle telemetry and operational data, alongside reporting on utilization, performance and mission outcomes.
• Scalable, observable full-stack systems whose quality, maintainability and evolution you own in production.

🙌 You should apply if

• You have experience building, shipping and operating production full-stack applications and web services.
• You bring hands-on depth across frontend, backend and infrastructure. Our stack includes React, TypeScript and MUI; Rust, Go and Node.js; and Kubernetes, Azure and Bazel. Experience with it is a plus, not a requirement.
• You have independently owned projects from an ambiguous problem through technical design, delivery and ongoing operation.
• You understand API contracts, data modeling, service boundaries and the reliability, consistency, scalability and failure modes of distributed systems.
• You

A quick, honest note before you apply.

Wayve is not a mature, fully-structured place with the playbook already written. Much of how we work is still being written, and if you join, you’ll help write it. That suits people who want real ownership more than people who need a settled structure from day one.

If that sounds like the kind of problem you want to spend your time on, we’d really like to hear from you.
