Our advanced AI software and foundation models enable vehicles to perceive, understand, and navigate any complex environment, enhancing the usability and safety of automated driving systems. Our vision is to create autonomy that propels the world forward. Our intelligent, mapless, and hardware-agnostic AI products are designed for automakers, accelerating the transition from assisted to automated driving. In our fast-paced environment big problems ignite us—we embrace uncertainty, leaning into complex challenges to unlock groundbreaking solutions. We aim high and stay humble in our pursuit of excellence, constantly learning and evolving as we pave the way for a smarter, safer future. At Wayve, your contributions matter. We value diversity, embrace new perspectives, and foster an inclusive work environment; we back each other to deliver impact. Make Wayve the experience that defines your career! The role Today at Wayve, our model development cycle is composed of multiple complex training phases, each building on the last. As a Staff Machine Learning Engineer (Ops/Release), you are expected to have a deep understanding of each of the training phases, understanding how our models are created from start to finish. You will ultimately be responsible for setting and enforcing the standard of each of the release gates along this journey, ensuring that each training phase is sufficiently validated before the next phase begins. You'll drive technical excellence across our ML delivery pipelines. You'll review release content to ensure it meets our standards, identify bottlenecks in the process, and partner with platform teams to make sure tooling meets our delivery needs. You'll work with CI/CD teams to adapt workflows and streamline model delivery, and with evaluation teams to keep our methods reliable — spotting gaps and driving new methodology for evaluating our models. This is a high-trust, high-visibility role: our release process directly protects our model baseline, and a mistake here has real consequences for how the product performs on-road and how it's perceived externally. Key responsibilities: Collaborate with ML engineers, data engineers and product teams to deliver features end to end. Review release content — model and metric changes, evaluation results — to confirm everything meets Wayve's quality and safety standards before it ships. Identify bottlenecks in the ML delivery pipeline and drive fixes that improve speed without compromising quality. Collaborate with AI Platform teams to ensure tooling meets our delivery needs, defining and building the checks and automation that catch issues earlier. Collaborate with CI/CD teams to adapt workflows and streamline model delivery. Collaborate with evaluation teams to ensure evaluation methods are reliable, identify gaps, and drive new methodology for evaluating our models. Stay up to date with the latest in MLOps practices and tools and bring improvements into the workflow.

Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.
144.883Jobs

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
