Roboticist, Robot Foundation Model
wayve
Overview
In this role you will help build embodied intelligence forRobots, leading offline 3D reconstruction from vehicle sensors to enable robust world geometry and ego-motion estimation. You will bridge research and engineering, work hands-on with hardware and ML systems, and communicate across research, engineering and product teams. You’ll thrive in a fast-moving environment with ownership and ambiguity, contributing to a mission to enable universal autonomy.
