Staff Machine Learning Engineer - Ops

Today at Wayve, our model development cycle is composed of multiple complex training phases, each building on the last. As a Staff Machine Learning Engineer (Ops/Release), you are expected to have a deep understanding of each of the training phases, understanding how our models are created from start to finish. You will ultimately be responsible for setting and enforcing the standard of each of the release gates along this journey, ensuring that each training phase is sufficiently validated before the next phase begins.

You'll drive technical excellence across our ML delivery pipelines. You'll review release content to ensure it meets our standards, identify bottlenecks in the process, and partner with platform teams to make sure tooling meets our delivery needs. You'll work with CI/CD teams to adapt workflows and streamline model delivery, and with evaluation teams to keep our methods reliable — spotting gaps and driving new methodology for evaluating our models.

This is a high-trust, high-visibility role: our release process directly protects our model baseline, and a mistake here has real consequences for how the product performs on-road and how it's perceived externally.
