Legal Counsel (Commercial)
The Role
Wayve is looking for a Commercial Counsel based in Sunnyvale, California to support a broad range of commercial matters across the business. This is a mid-level position that will play a critical role in shaping Wayve’s commercial legal function in the United States as we scale globally and bring embodied AI technology into real-world deployment.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-moving, technology-driven environments and enjoys working at the intersection of commercial contracting, product innovation, and operational scale. While experience in autonomous vehicles, robotics, automotive, or AI would be valuable, it is not essential. We are more interested in candidates with strong foundational commercial skills, sound judgement, and a proven ability to navigate complex contractual landscapes within technology, mobility, or other highly regulated industries.
We are looking for a proactive, commercially minded self-starter who is comfortable operating independently, building scalable processes and frameworks, and partnering closely with senior stakeholders across the business. This role will have significant exposure to cross-border matters and will work closely with commercial, procurement, engineering, product, finance, privacy, and operational teams as the company continues to expand internationally.
