About the role

As a Site Reliability Engineer at Wayve, you will work across the full reliability stack for our vehicle software: observability, incident management, operator tooling, and the automation that lets engineering and operations teams detect, triage, and resolve issues faster. You will work closely with software engineers, field engineers, and operations, debugging real systems, improving real processes, and having direct impact on how our vehicles perform in production.

What they're looking for

  • You will write production-quality code every day in Python, C++, or Rust. This is a software engineering role as much as a reliability role, and coding is central to the work
  • Comfortable debugging at the Linux and systems level, reading logs, tracing failures, and finding root cause in complex environments
  • Experience with CI/CD, containerization, networking, distributed systems, databases, and observability and incident-management tooling, including DataDog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Splunk, or Humio
  • Experience diagnosing complex production or operational systems, not just escalating, but seeing problems through to resolution
  • The communication skills to work effectively across engineering, operations, and field teams, and the judgment to know when to bring others in
  • Based in Sunnyvale and able to be onsite at least three days a week to work alongside the field teams you will support
