About the Role
Wayve is seeking Research Scientists to develop next-generation AI systems for autonomous driving and robotics, working at the intersection of machine learning, simulation, robotics, and real-world deployment to drive embodied AI innovation.
Responsibilities
- Develop World Models and Planners for realistic and consistent simulation.
- Advance Reinforcement Learning and Reward Modeling, building scalable and safe learning frameworks.
- Develop Geometric Foundation Models for 3D spatial understanding in dynamic, real-world environments.
- Enable Cross-Embodiment Robotics, leveraging multimodal foundation models to accelerate robotic learning.
- Conduct empirical research on Scaling laws, Generalisation, and Sim-to-real transfer.
- Define and evolve Evaluation Frameworks and Benchmarks for long-horizon prediction, scene fidelity, and driving performance.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience developing and deploying ML systems in real-world or production settings.
- PhD, Master’s degree, or equivalent experience in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Robotics, or a related field.
- Deep expertise in one or more core Embodied AI areas (Foundation models, Generative world modeling, Reinforcement learning, Spatial AI).
- Track record of publications at top-tier conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, CVPR, ICCV, CoRL).
- Strong programming skills in Python, with experience using frameworks such as PyTorch.
- A data-centric mindset, with experience working on large-scale datasets and evaluation.
- Strong problem-solving ability and the ability to collaborate effectively in interdisciplinary teams.
- Experience in autonomous driving, robotics, or simulation systems (nice-to-have).
- Familiarity with large-scale training (e.g., FSDP, DeepSpeed, JAX) (nice-to-have).
- Experience with sim-to-real transfer or data-efficient learning (nice-to-have).
- Contributions to open-source ML tools or research infrastructure (nice-to-have).
