Wayve is building the leading AI platform for autonomous driving, pioneering an end-to-end AI approach that enables vehicles to learn directly from real-world experience. The company operates a hybrid model across six countries with main hubs in London, Sunnyvale, Yokohama, Herzliya, Vancouver, and Leonberg.
In this role, you will lead a distributed IT and security team across the UK, Germany, and the US, supporting a mixed Mac, Windows, and Linux estate across offices, labs, garages, and test facilities. You'll be hands-on in technical decisions while building and developing a newly formed team into high-performing domain owners.
Key responsibilities include:
- Owning and evolving Okta, including SSO migrations, application onboarding, access automation, and evidence for access revocation
- Strengthening endpoint security, vulnerability management, patching, privileged access, and incident response across Mac, Windows, and Linux
- Improving device and asset lifecycle management, inventory accuracy, SaaS administration, and licensing
- Building scalable controls and reliable evidence for customer and security requirements (TISAX, ISO 27001, SOC 2)
- Hiring, performance management, and developing engineers into trusted domain owners
- Collaborating with peer leaders to maintain clear ownership and ensure controls scale effectively
- Setting direction across identity, endpoint management, security operations, and SaaS lifecycle
You'll work with Helpdesk, Network, and Compliance teams in a hybrid environment combining in-person collaboration with remote flexibility.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Proven experience leading an IT, security, or infrastructure team, including hiring, performance management, and engineer development
- Deep hands-on experience with identity platforms (Okta or Entra), endpoint management tools (Jamf or Intune), and SaaS administration
- Experience managing Linux fleets alongside Mac and Windows environments
- Practical experience across security operations: hardening, vulnerability and patch management, access reviews, incident response
- Experience implementing controls and producing evidence for security certifications or audits (TISAX, ISO 27001, SOC 2)
- Ability to use scripting or infrastructure-as-code tools to automate processes and set strong technical standards
- Comfort scaling multi-site corporate environments and working collaboratively with peer leaders across defined areas of ownership
The company notes that not meeting every requirement is acceptable if you're passionate about autonomy and keen to learn.
