Senior Engineering Project Manager @ Woven

Business & Strategy (1)

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.

ABOUT THE TEAM

You will be an integral part of a team responsible for developing next-generation in-vehicle user experiences for future Toyota and Lexus vehicles. The experiences are built on and demonstrate new user value powered by Arene, Woven Planet’s flagship programmable automotive software system that integrates on-vehicle OS and data collection services with the cloud.

This team will deliver concept hardware and software solutions driven by high-quality UX research that defines an end-to-end product definition for Toyota’s next-generation vehicles. This concept work will produce a full-stack solution starting with the digital services, the programmable software system, and the underlying compute and electrical architecture of the vehicle.

This team represents the cutting edge of software and hardware development at Toyota. Your work will marry the speed and agility of Silicon Valley software development with the standards of functional safety, craftsmanship, and time-tested quality of Toyota products in a fast-paced and collaborative prototyping environment.
