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
We’re looking for Research Scientists to join Wayve Labs and help build the next generation of AI systems for autonomous driving and robotics. You’ll work at the intersection of machine learning, simulation, robotics, and real-world deployment, contributing to core innovations that push the boundaries of embodied AI.
Situated within Wayve, we are a high-conviction research team with the strategic patience and backing to prioritise multi-year breakthroughs over incremental gains. We are looking for highly motivated individuals with expertise and passion to push the frontier of embodied AI, including (but not limited to) the following areas:
World & Reward Modeling: Building realistic, diverse simulators that can predict the consequences and costs of actions.
Representation Learning & Spatial Intelligence: Advancing how machines truly understand and navigate dynamic, unstructured 3D environments, from detailed spatial understanding, to efficient long term memory.
Scalable Decision-Making Systems: Designing architectures, reasoning systems, and policy learning algorithms that operate over long contexts, and scale with data and compute.
Cross-Embodiment and Multimodal Learning: Advance embodied learning systems that can flexibly adapt to diverse robotic platforms and multimodal inputs, using vision, language, and active sensors.
Key Responsibilities
Develop World Models and Planners (e.g., diffusion-based, autoregressive, or hybrid approaches) for realistic and consistent simulation
Advance Reinforcement Learning and Reward Modeling, building scalable and safe learning frameworks across real and synthetic data
Develop Geometric Foundation Models for 3D spatial understanding in dynamic, real-world environments.
Enable Cross-Embodiment Robotics, leveraging the power of multimodal foundation models to accelerate robotic learning on diverse platforms.
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
