The role
In this role, you will have the opportunity to work with Wayve’s next-generation on-vehicle compute and sensor platform, as well as contribute to all phases of the software development lifecycle.
As a member of the Robot Software, Inference & Accelerators team, you will collaborate with your team to deliver software for edge devices to provide data and enable autonomy on a large fleet of vehicles. You will work closely with our Autonomy and Science organizations to ensure they have the data and interfaces they need to train models, run experiments, and get feedback on driving performance. You will deliver software layers which: extend our inference abstractions to new target hardware and accelerators, ensure the right data arrives in the right place at the right time, and create a system which is dynamically configurable. A key responsibility will be to ensure that the software you deliver runs reliably at scale.
