Product Feature Owner ADAS

🧩 What you’ll be working on:

• Owning the end-to-end lifecycle of ADAS features across Collision Avoidance and Lane Keeping, including Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Evasive Steering Assist (ESA), Automatic Emergency Steering (AES) and Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM).
• Defining and evolving feature specifications in partnership with OEMs, engineering and product teams.
• Harmonising customer requirements across OEM partners to maximise reusable assets, scalability and efficient feature delivery.
• Setting clear performance targets and ensuring features meet customer requirements, internal capabilities and agreed delivery specifications.
• Supporting testing, evaluation and validation to ensure feature quality and readiness for production.
• Maintaining and evolving the strategic feature roadmap as Wayve’s technology advances towards higher levels of autonomy.
• Participating in agile planning and delivery rituals, helping teams manage dependencies, risks and priorities effectively.
• Ensuring feature delivery aligns with relevant automotive quality, safety and compliance expectations.

🙌 You should apply if:

• You have strong experience specifying and delivering ADAS features from concept through to production, particularly across Collision Avoidance or Lane Keeping functions such as AEB, LKA, ESA, AES or BSM.
• You understand automotive development processes, including requirements management, the V-model, ASPICE, quality and validation.
• You are confident working directly with OEM customers: understanding their needs, negotiating requirements and representing their perspective internally while maintaining a clear view of Wayve’s product strategy.
• You have sufficient technical depth to engage credibly with engineering teams on feature trade-offs, feasibility, testing, evaluation and validation.
• You are a strong cross-functional collaborator who can bridge technical and commercial perspectives, creating alignment across customers, product and engineering teams.
• You proactively identify risks and issues before they escalate, balancing immediate delivery needs with the longer-term product roadmap.
• You are comfortable in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment and can bring structure and clarity without adding unnecessary process.
• Experience shipping complete ADAS features into large-scale automotive production programmes would be valuable.
• Knowledge of automotive quality, safety and compliance standards—including ASPICE, SOTIF, functional safety, GSR-II and DCAS—would be valuable.
• Experience with machine learning, LLMs or recent generative-AI methods and architectures would be beneficial.
• You bring curiosity and a forward-looking approach to developing new ADAS capabilities and advancing the customer experience.

🌱 Not ticking every box? That’s totally okay! If you’re passionate about autonomy and keen to learn, we encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every requirement.

More about Wayve:

🚀 Wayve is building the leading AI platform for autonomous driving. We are pioneering an end to end AI approach that enables vehicles to learn directly from real world experience, developing the ability to adapt, generalise and improve at scale. Instead of relying on hand coded rules or pre mapped environments, our AI Driver learns to drive by understanding the world around it. The result is technology that navigates complex urban environments with intelligence, precision and natural flow, unlocking meaningful advances in both safety and efficiency. We believe autonomy represents a once in a generation transformation in how people and goods move, comparable to the shift from horses to cars, and from human driven vehicles to intelligent machines.

Our ambition is to make autonomy universal. Wayve’s mapless and hardware agnostic AI platform integrates with global OEM partners, enabling continuous software evolution and unlocking advanced levels of automation from L2 plus through to L4 as our core AI model scales. In a race increasingly defined by intelligence and real world learning, Wayve is taking a distinct approach, building a generalisable driving intelligence that can power any vehicle, anywhere. By combining embodied AI with scalable deployment, we are creating technology that can be shaped to each OEM brand and driver experience, accelerating the transition to a safer, more intelligent future of mobility.

A quick, honest note before you apply.

Wayve is not a mature, fully-structured place with the playbook already written. Much of how we work is still being written, and if you join, you’ll help write it. That suits people who want real ownership more than people who need a settled structure from day one.

If that sounds like the kind of problem you want to spend your time on, we’d really like to hear from you.

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.

However, we do look to capture information about care responsibilities, and disabilities among other diversity information as part of an optional DEI Monitoring form to help us identify areas of improvement in our hiring process and ensure that the process is inclusive and non-discriminatory.
