About Woven by Toyota 🚗
Woven by Toyota, a part of the Toyota Group, is challenging the current state of mobility through human-centric innovation and empowering mobility transformation. Through our AD/ADAS technology, our automotive software development platform Arene OS, our mobility test course Toyota Woven City, and Toyota’s growth fund, Woven Capital, we are pioneering the movement of people, goods, information, and energy, weaving a future of enhanced safety, connectivity, and well-being for all.
Team 👥
The mission of our team, Software Architecture, is to derive the best software architecture for the customer, taking into account various AD/ADAS system requirements, preconditions, specifications, and constraints. The architecture here refers to two types of architecture: an abstract logical architecture that provides guidelines for some AD/ADAS functions placement, and a physical architecture that takes hardware performance and constraints into account. The derived software architecture will satisfy the customer's requirements in terms of quality, cost, etc. to the greatest extent.
Who Are We Looking For? 🔎
We are looking for excellent candidates for full-time engineers who will perform software architecture design. We are looking for individuals who can aggressively pursue a series of architectural design tasks, from acquiring requirements, to building logical structures, and finally to determining functional placement taking into account various physical constraints.
You will report to the Engineering Manager and the role is hybrid - 3 days in office per week.
Responsibilities 🛠️
- Together with software and hardware engineers, write a unified AD/ADAS Logical Architecture specification for embedded software systems
- Design Logical Architecture: Acquire functional and non-functional requirements from various suppliers and partners
- Design Logical Architecture: Prioritize requirements and constraints with stakeholders and design the optimal logical architecture that best meets their requirements
- Design Physical Architecture: Consider CPU and software component placement and scheduling theory development and design, taking into account hardware constraints. Budget design of memory and other components.
- Measure Physical Architecture: Measure of HW budgets, such as processing load and memory size, and study countermeasure planning when budgets are exceeded
- Create unified AD/ADAS Logical and physical Architecture design strategy and development process
Minimum Qualifications 📚
- Proficiency of software architecture design and embedded software development, e.g., 4+ years of hands-on experience in the development of embedded software
- Hands-on experience of requirements acquisition and definition in embedded software development
- Knowledge of software development for SoC-based embedded systems equipped with multiple cores, GPUs, hardware accelerators, etc.
- Knowledge of software platforms and middlewares, e.g., POSIX, RTOS, Ubuntu, ROS, QNX, etc.
- Knowledge of programming languages, preferably in C++
