The role

Own the roadmap for Wayve’s development and experimentation vehicle platforms—where software, hardware, and operations meet to make rapid iteration possible. You’ll partner across engineering, program management, and internal teams to turn platform requirements into scalable capabilities that accelerate experiments, data collection, and deployments. This is a hands-on, high-trust role focused on making smart tradeoffs and delivering platforms that enable Wayve’s priorities (and, where relevant, customer programs) to move faster and more reliably.

Key responsibilities

  • Own and evolve the roadmap for development & experimentation vehicle platform features.
  • Gather and prioritize requirements across engineering, program management, and internal customers; translate them into clear workflows, specs, and measurable success criteria.
  • Define and track platform product KPIs; maintain a cohesive view of current capabilities and what’s next.
  • Make product tradeoffs and manage stakeholder expectations across teams with competing priorities.
  • Reduce time-to-debug, deploy experiments, and access data by improving tooling and processes.
  • Drive reuse and scalability of capabilities across reference vehicles and customer programs; minimize one-off configurations.
  • Improve consistency between internal development environments and customer-operated workflows.

About you

In order to set you up for success as a Technical Product Manager at Wayve, we’re looking for the following skills and experience.

Essential

  • 5+ years of experience shipping autonomy / AV features end-to-end (concept → integration → validation → release)
  • Strong systems thinking: can assess how platform changes impact downstream development, data, tooling, and operations
  • Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills; able to challenge respectfully across engineering through leadership
  • Track record coordinating cross-functional execution across multiple teams to deliver complex, interdependent programs
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience with embedded platforms, with direct involvement in architecture, development, and validation
  • Thrives in fast-paced, iterative environments with evolving priorities - brings momentum and calm to fast-moving environments without adding unnecessary process
  • Scrappy, resourceful, and focused on outcomes
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field

Desirable

  • Experience owning or scaling developer / operations tooling and processes in complex hardware+software environments
  • Exposure to data feedback loops, data collection, and fleet operations in AV contexts
  • Prior experience working with external customers or partner programs, translating needs into productized workflows
  • Familiarity with automotive real-time environments, AI compute platforms, and sensors
