## Description

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

Wayve is building a new generation of autonomous driving technology powered by end-to-end AI. Our Robotaxi Engineering team is responsible for turning that intelligence into a complete Level 4 autonomous driving system that can operate safely and reliably in the real world.

This is one of Wayve’s most important engineering leadership roles. As VP, Engineering, Robotaxi, you will lead the engineering organisation responsible for taking our Robotaxi product from development through deployment and scale.

The challenge is inherently multidisciplinary. Delivering a Robotaxi requires bringing together AI, onboard software, vehicle systems, sensors and compute, safety, validation, simulation and fleet operations into one coherent system.

You will lead across those boundaries, setting the technical direction and building the organisation required to deliver a safe, scalable L4 product.

 

🧠 Your day-to-day

You will own the engineering strategy and execution for Wayve’s Robotaxi program, working closely with leaders across AI, Product, Validation, Vehicle Engineering and Operations.

You will set clear technical priorities for the organisation and ensure teams are solving the right problems in the right order as we mov
