Wayve is a British autonomous driving technology company that develops end-to-end "Embodied AI" foundation models for self-driving vehicles and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Founded in 2017 by University of Cambridge researchers, Wayve pioneered what it calls the "AV2.0" approach to autonomous vehicles. Unlike traditional self-driving stacks that rely on rigid hand-coded rules, high-definition (HD) 3D maps, and specialized sensors, Wayve uses a unified deep learning model.

Based only on the listings that state pay. Gross annual amounts, converted to USD so roles in different currencies stay comparable.
The market right now
Alion currently lists 217 open CI/CD jobs in Japan from 99 companies. 7 of them were posted or refreshed in the last seven days. 79 of the employers have posted something in the last three months, which is the pool worth watching if you are starting a search now. Every listing links straight to the employer, so you apply on their own board rather than through an intermediary.
What these roles pay
19 of these CI/CD jobs in Japan state pay directly. Across them the middle half of the market sits between $60K and $162K a year, with a median of $69K. Figures are gross annual amounts converted to US dollars, so roles in different currencies stay comparable.
Where the work is
The largest concentrations of these roles are Japan (144), United States (1), Australia (1), Hong Kong (1), and Singapore (1). 28% of the listings are fully remote and a further 19% are hybrid, so a large part of this market is open to you regardless of where you live.
Who is hiring
The employers with the most open CI/CD jobs in Japan right now are Woven by Toyota (13), Medley (12), Speechify (9), Rapyuta Robotics (8), Mercari (8), and Ispace (7). Each company page on Alion carries its size, funding stage, tech stack and every other position it has open, so you can judge the employer before you spend an evening on the application.
What employers ask for
Reading across the current listings, the tools that come up most often are CI/CD (154), AWS (104), Python (100), GitHub (86), Git (71), Docker (67), Kubernetes (67), and GCP (65). The counts are how many of these openings name each one, which is a better guide to what is actually being hired for than a generic skills list.
Relocation, visas and equity
Of the current CI/CD jobs in Japan, 14 state visa sponsorship, 10 offer a relocation package, and 16 include equity. These are filters on the list above, so you can narrow it to the ones that make a move possible for you.
