Front of House

Job Description

Who we are

Wayve is a London start-up on a mission to reimagine autonomous mobility through embodied intelligence. We are the first to deploy autonomous vehicles on public roads using deep learning. We are pioneering the AI software, lean hardware and fleet learning platform for AV 2.0: a next generation autonomous driving system that can quickly and safely adapt to new driving domains anywhere in the world.

To reimagine a new approach, we knew we needed to rethink how to build a new kind of tech company. This meant that from our first day back in 2017, we were already focused on building a culture with intention and a world class team that would bring together people from all walks of life, align with our Values and want to change the world. This thesis continues to be our North Star and the only way we believe we will bring autonomy to everyone, everywhere.
