From Wayve’s original posting

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 Robotics Team The Robotics team is responsible for bridging the gap from our model to our vehicle platforms, in order to let the model focus on making driving decisions. We aim to provide high quality data to the model for making such decisions, whilst abstracting away platform-specific aspects. We combine specialisms across the robotics domain, blending strong theoretical foundations with solid engineering practice to span the spectrum from research to production. 🧠 Your day-to-day - Define and evolve the technical architecture and roadmap for Wayve’s onboard localisation capability, aligned with vehicle programmes and product requirements. - Lead the development of robust state-estimation systems that fuse GNSS, IMU and wheel-odometry signals, with scope to incorporate camera-, RADAR- and LiDAR-based measurements. - Take localisation solutions from…
