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 full-stack features, working with senior engineers, Product Managers and Designers to turn agreed designs into production-quality software.
  • Contribute to technical discussions and break work into practical implementation steps.
  • Follow your work through testing, deployment and maintenance.
  • Write clean, performant code, debug issues and review peers’ changes.
  • Share what you learn and take on more complex problems as your experience grows.
  • Keep usability and reliability central to the tools you build for real vehicle operations.

🧩 What you’ll be working on

  • Frontend and backend features that help teams understand fleet health, configuration, software status and location.
  • APIs, databases and cloud services behind Fleet Management workflows.
  • Tools that support engineers and operators across different OEMs and vehicle configurations.
  • Scalable, maintainable services developed in partnership with senior engineers.
  • Automated tests, debugging and code reviews that improve the quality and consistency of the platform.

🙌 You should apply if

  • You have professional experience building full-stack web applications or services, with genuine hands-on exposure to both frontend and backend development.
  • You have worked with APIs, schemas, databases and backend services.
  • You can deliver clean, tested and maintainable code, and contribute thoughtfully to technical design discussions.
  • You are familiar with cloud services, distributed systems or microservice architectures.
  • You take ownership of assigned work, communicate proactively and enjoy learning from experienced teammates.
  • Experience with React, TypeScript, MUI, Rust, Go, Node.js, Kubernetes, Bazel or Azure would be useful, but not required.
  • Bonus if you have experience with fleet management, robotics, autonomy, operational tooling, monitoring or high-volume data workflows.

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.
