The role
As a DevOps CI/CD Engineer, you’ll work on the build and CI/CD systems that enable Wayve’s engineering teams to develop, test, and release software efficiently and reliably.
You’ll help make our pipelines faster, more scalable, more secure, and easier for engineers to use. You’ll work closely with software engineers across the business to understand workflow pain points, troubleshoot complex build and pipeline issues, and deliver infrastructure and tooling improvements that have a direct impact on engineering productivity.
This is a hands-on engineering role with opportunities to deepen your expertise across CI/CD infrastructure, build systems, developer experience, automation, and operational best practices.
Key responsibilities
- Build, maintain, and improve CI/CD pipelines and build infrastructure across development, testing, and release workflows.
- Improve build performance, reliability, and scalability, including caching, dependency management, incremental builds, and reproducible builds.
- Develop tooling and automation that improves developer workflows and reduces build and test feedback times.
- Operate and scale CI infrastructure, including build agents, runners, artifact storage, and supporting services.
- Monitor, investigate, and troubleshoot build and pipeline failures, working with engineering teams to identify root causes and implement long-term fixes.
- Contribute to the evolution of Wayve’s CI/CD architecture, security, and operational practices as engineering workloads scale.
- Partner with engineering teams to improve developer experience and support efficient software delivery.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
