The role

As a software engineer for Wayves Simulation Technology team, you will be an expert software engineer who evolves a core component of Wayves simulation platform, which is used to develop and evaluate Wayves driving intelligence. Wayves approach to autonomous driving presents unique challenges for simulation. Our end to end driving stack requires a simulator that is both highly realistic and highly descriptive. Our approach to simulation brings together a combination of classical simulation techniques with cutting edge developments in machine learning to represent the real world in high fidelity at scale. You will be responsible for shaping and implementing the technical roadmap in one of three key areas : robot emulator fidelity, visual fidelity, or efficient scaling. You will be working closely with our robotics, research, platform and data teams, as well as the rest of the Simulation Technology team to ensure that our simulation platform meets the needs of our end-users by providing accurate, scalable, and high-signal simulations.

Challenges you will own

• Own key performance indicators (KPIs) for simulator realism, reproducibility, and / or cost
• Work cross-company on aligning technical dependencies for simulator implementation
• Lead technical discussions and guide technical direction
• Effectively integrate the components of the simulated robot into the simulation platform
• Effectively integrate machine-learned graphics subsystems into the simulation platform
• Implement production quality software in C++ and Python

About you

This is a full-time role based in our office in Sunnyvale. We operate a hybrid working policy that combines time together in our offices and workshops with time spent working from home. We operate core working hours so you can determine the schedule that works best for you and your team.

We understand that everyone has a unique set of skills and experiences and that not everyone will meet all of the requirements listed above. If youre passionate about self-driving cars and think you have what it takes to make a positive impact on the world, we encourage you to apply.
