Make Wayve the experience that defines your career!

The role

Lead a seasoned Platform Engineering team with visibility across the entire engineering organization. This team owns the multi-cloud foundation that every other engineering team builds on, so your decisions and your team's work are felt company-wide. You'll shape how we scale that foundation while keeping quality, cost, and security front and center as the business grows.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage a team of Platform Engineers, coaching them to drive strong impact.
  • Drive the technical roadmap for cloud infrastructure with the tech lead.
  • Own cost visibility and efficiency as cloud usage scales.
  • Partner with Security on governance, access, and compliance.
  • Balance resourcing against business needs and individual capacity.
  • Keep prioritization sharp and processes lean.
  • Partner with leadership to sustain a culture of collaboration, impact, and innovation.
  • Hire and grow the team, anticipating business needs and pitching investment to leadership.
  • Contribute to the day-to-day running of the Software team’s operations and larger collaborative efforts.

About You

Wayve is scaling fast, and we're looking for someone who's passionate about laying the cornerstone: building the cloud infrastructure foundations and best practices that will support the company for years to come. Here's what will help you thrive as our Engineering Manager, Cloud Infrastructure.

Essential

  • Prior experience as an engineering manager in software or developer operations.
  • Experience balancing project work with support and operational load.
  • Passion for developing individual team members.
  • Strong roadmap planning, stakeholder management, and cross-team alignment.
  • Hands-on experience with a major cloud provider (Azure, AWS, or GCP) at scale.
  • Knowledge of infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or similar).
  • Familiarity with Linux and container orchestration (Kubernetes or similar).
  • BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.

Desirable

  • Experience operating a multi-cloud environment.
  • Knowledge of build systems and modern CI/CD solutions.
  • Experience developing in Python.

This is a full-time role based in our office in Sunnyvale and the reasonably estimated salary for this role ranges from $276,100 to $311,400, plus a competitive equity package. Actual compensation is based on the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience.

At Wayve we want the best of all worlds so we operate a hybrid working policy that combines time together in our offices and workshops to fuel innovation, culture, relationships and learning, and time spent working from home. We operate core working hours so you can determine the schedule that works best for you and your team.

Wayve is committed to creating an inclusive interview experience. If you require any accommodations or adjustments to participate fully in our interview process, please let us know.

We understand that everyone has a unique set of skills and experiences and that not everyone will meet all of the requirements listed above. If you’re passionate about self-driving cars and think you have what it takes to make a positive impact on the world, we encourage you to apply.

At Wayve we're committed to creating a diverse, fair and respectful culture that is inclusive of everyone based on their unique skills and perspectives, and regardless of sex, race, religion or belief, ethnic or national origin, disability, age, citizenship, marital, domestic or civil partnership status, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran status, pregnancy or related condition (including breastfeeding) or any other basis as protected by applicable law.
