Robotics Jobs in London

Humanoid · London

Designs, implements and validates actuator- and joint-level controllers plus grasp-level behaviours for a family of end-effectors, including parallel and multi-finger grippers, vacuum tooling and underactuated designs. Works in ROS2 and C++ from real-time embedded control through kinematics, dynamics, transmission modelling and hands-on hardware bring-up, shaping actuation and transmission choices with mechanical engineers early in the design cycle.

Humanoid · London

Lead operational execution across the company, owning the company-wide execution framework including roadmaps, delivery plans, timelines and milestones. Drive cross-functional alignment between engineering, product and leadership, monitor progress, resolve delivery risks and bottlenecks, and provide oversight to project managers. Distinct for its deep-tech robotics context and executive-level ownership of strategy-to-execution.

Wayve · London

Post-train and scale GAIA-family large video diffusion world models to generate multimodal synthetic driving data, running generation pipelines across tens of thousands of segments and optimising GPU inference. Sits between ML research and engineering, landing synthetic data into the same training stack as real driving data and measuring its impact on driving-model performance.

Wayve · London

Owns the end-to-end release cycle for AI driving models, coordinating ML engineering, evaluation, data science, platform, testing and product teams. Defines release gates and promotion criteria from training through validation to fleet deployment, drives regression investigations and rollback decisions, and builds tooling and KPIs to remove bottlenecks in a non-deterministic ML environment.

Humanoid · London

Owns control quality measurement for a humanoid robot platform, turning qualitative concerns like smoothness and tracking error into reproducible, versioned metrics. Builds automated test harnesses and CI pipelines spanning simulation and hardware-in-the-loop, plus per-robot and fleet-level test suites and dashboards. A software engineering role working alongside control engineers, requiring Python, modern C++ and real robotics data experience.

Humanoid · London

Owns end-to-end engineering delivery for a wheeled industrial humanoid product, spanning hardware, software, AI and system integration from design through pilots to scaled field deployment. Acts as a technical GM working through influence across matrixed functional teams, setting priorities and roadmap while reporting directly to the CTO.

Wayve · London

Lead the technical direction for an offline 3D reconstruction system that turns raw vehicle sensor data into quality-assessed 3D ground-truth geometry and ego motion. The role spans SLAM, lidar point-cloud registration, state estimation and sensor fusion, with responsibility for architecture, roadmaps, prototypes and cross-functional alignment across perception, calibration and validation teams.

Wayve · London

Lead a small team iterating on Wayve's end-to-end L2 driving model, balancing hands-on Python coding and experiments with directing priorities. You diagnose on-road issues, root-cause them, and drive fixes through data recipes, model architecture and evaluation, working across teams on model and vehicle interface problems.

Wayve · London

Lead the technical architecture and roadmap for onboard localisation, designing and productionising state-estimation systems that fuse GNSS, IMU and wheel odometry for accurate vehicle pose estimates. The role spans algorithm design, prototyping, validation and deployment on real-time vehicle platforms, with hands-on technical leadership and mentorship across robotics, calibration, controls and sensor teams.

Wayve · London

You'll develop embedded software connecting an AI Driver to vehicle steering, braking and propulsion, working in MATLAB/Simulink on flashing, calibration and drive-by-wire interfaces. The role spans bench and in-vehicle testing, CAN/CAN-FD diagnostics, OTA updates and ADAS/HMI integration, collaborating closely with OEMs, suppliers and controls engineers.

Wayve · London

Owns configuration and change management across Wayve's full V-model development lifecycle, maintaining configuration item lists, baselines and traceability across Jira, GitHub, Jama Connect, Enterprise Architect and Notion. Acts as process owner for Automotive SPICE SUP.8 and SUP.10, adapting automotive rigour to a fast-moving autonomous driving engineering environment.

Wayve · London

Owns Wayve's end-to-end data strategy across the AI learning cycle, from foundation model training to production programmes, leading a multidisciplinary Data organisation. Focuses on building the data flywheel, discovering rare and safety-critical scenarios in huge datasets using embeddings, semantic search and model-driven selection, and connecting data investment to model performance.

Wayve · London

Hands-on role optimising inference for edge accelerators and GPUs so large transformer models run efficiently on low-cost, low-power in-vehicle compute. You'll profile model graphs, compilers, runtimes and kernels, implement optimisations like fusion, scheduling and custom kernels, and build benchmarking and regression tests across NVIDIA Orin/Thor and Qualcomm targets, working closely with model, platform and deployment teams.

Wayve · London

Builds and ships computer vision and 3D perception models for driver assistance, working across the full ML lifecycle from data generation to training, evaluation and iteration. The role spans latency-constrained on-car perception and large-scale offline work using lidar, maps and extra compute to power an auto-labelling data flywheel.

Wayve · London

Bridges Wayve's core AI Driver architecture and OEM/Tier 1 vehicle platforms, defining software–vehicle interfaces across sensors, signals, middleware and ECUs. Owns interface contracts, ownership boundaries and validation-ready requirements, representing Wayve in partner technical discussions.
