Depends on what you mean by "work on gravitational waves", which is a
large area of research.
The toolkit is used for numerical astrophysics and gravitational waves
produced by colliding compact objects have been a long standing target
for these types of simulations.
Eg the GW150914 gallery example:
http://einsteintoolkit.org/gallery/bbh/index.html
contains an extensive set of Mathematica notebooks that show how one
can process the gravitational waves produced.
If you are thinking of eg post-Newtonian work, then no the ET is the
wrong toolkit for this.
If you are thinking of extreme mass ratio inspirals then the black hole
perturbation toolkit
https://bhptoolkit.org/
may be useful for you.
To get an idea what the ET is currently being used for you can query eg
the arXiv for it:
https://search.arxiv.org/?in=&query=%22Einstein%20Toolkit%22
which gives some idea of what it can be and is used for.
Yours,
Roland
