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:

Product Integrity

We are the first line of defense for safety + security + quality of AD/ADAS software at Woven by Toyota. Partnering with feature, systems, safety, cybersecurity and machine-learning teams, we turn prototypes into production-intent, standards-compliant software that can be trusted on public roads. Our mandate flows directly from Woven’s commitment to “zero accidents and enhanced well-being for all.”

  • Adapt and tune software safety and quality tooling settings and integration in CI to meet the needs of the development program
  • Enable AD/ADAS subteams to understand and improve software safety and quality through high-touch engagement with AD/ADAS domain experts
  • Identify build and infrastructure improvements that improve developer efficiency
  • Be a self-driven leader, stay abreast of current best software practices, and mentor other engineers

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Proficiency with shell scripts, C/C++, Python, bazel, git, Linux, and continuous integration
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience
