🚗 About Woven by Toyota 🚗
Woven by Toyota is enabling Toyota’s once-in-a-century transformation into a mobility company. Inspired by a legacy of innovating for the benefit of others, our mission is to challenge the current state of mobility through human-centric innovation — expanding what “mobility” means and how it serves society.
Our work centers on four pillars: AD/ADAS, our autonomous driving and advanced driver assist technologies; Arene, our software development platform for software-defined vehicles; Woven City, a test course for mobility; and Cloud & AI, the digital infrastructure powering our collaborative foundation. Business-critical functions empower these teams to execute, and together, we’re working toward one bold goal: a world with zero accidents and enhanced well-being for all.
✨ TEAM ✨
Our team's mission is to realize Woven's vision of "Mobility for All" by developing autonomous vehicles that can operate without human involvement. We specifically focus on Mobility as a Service (MaaS) applications. MaaS offers the advantage of increased vehicle usage time through ridesharing, allowing us to equip vehicles with advanced sensors and computers necessary for achieving reliable driverless operations. We change people's lives with our driverless vehicles. While working towards our mission we aim to build a diverse team of curious and dedicated individuals with different experiences.
🤔 WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR? 🤔
We are seeking engineers who are passionate about realizing autonomous vehicles and eager to take on challenges together to create a better future for mobility. We welcome individuals who can flexibly adapt to the integration of new sensors, computing environments, and software functionalities, and who possess the ability to build highly scalable platforms. We value those who are driven to delve into advanced areas such as operating system internals, real-time processing, and parallel computing to discover optimal solutions. Moreover, we are looking for team players who can leverage their own expertise while respecting the knowledge of other teams, contributing to the acceleration of development through collaboration. We look forward to welcoming individuals who bring both the passion and the expertise to shape the future of mobility.
