Wayve is looking for a software engineer to evolve a core component of their simulation platform, which is crucial for developing and evaluating their Embodied AI technology for autonomous driving systems. The platform needs to be highly realistic and descriptive, combining classical simulation techniques with machine learning to represent the real world at scale.
Requirements
- Domain experience in simulation, motion planning, localization, controls, modern machine learned graphics techniques (NeRF, Gaussian Splatting, or GenAI) or other areas of robotics
- Good development skills in Python and C++, including modern C++ (11, 14, 17, 20)
- Good sense of systems and data oriented software engineering design - what makes code reusable and extensible
- Understanding of common software performance issues and design tradeoffs
- 5+ years of industry experience designing and programming software
- Experience in the field of autonomous vehicles
- Experience with simulating / modelling the dynamics of vehicles and robots
Responsibilities
- Evolve a core component of Wayve’s simulation platform
- Shape and implement the technical roadmap in areas such as robot emulator fidelity, visual fidelity, or efficient scaling
- Integrate the components of the simulated robot into the simulation platform
- Integrate machine-learned graphics subsystems into the simulation platform
- Implement production quality software in C++ and Python
- Own key performance indicators (KPIs) for simulator realism, reproducibility, and/or cost
- Work cross-company on aligning technical dependencies for simulator implementation
