About the role
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 Simulation Teams Simulation is a mission-critical part of how we build Wayve's driving intelligence. It lets teams evaluate changes faster, investigate failures and build confidence in the driving stack before it reaches the road. Wayve's end-to-end driving stack creates a distinctive simulation challenge. There are no intermediate stages where simulated signals can be injected, so simulation has to be end to end too: reproducing the behaviour of a learned driving system across sensor data, model inference, routing, control and vehicle dynamics. Our simulator needs to be realistic enough to give meaningful signal, reproducible enough for teams to trust the results, and descriptive enough to explain the differences between simulated and on-road behaviour. You'll join the Core Simulation team. Our open-loop and closed-loop workflows share…
