Software Engineer (Control Integration)

About Woven by Toyota Woven by Toyota contributes to Toyota's transformation into a mobility company once-in-a-century. Inspired by our history of continuing to invent "for someone other than ourselves," our mission is to expand the definition of mobility, extend the ways mobility contributes to society, and continue to challenge the common sense of mobility through innovation that considers people.

We operate around four main pillars: AD/ADAS (Automated Driving / Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) technology, Arene, a vehicle software production platform for SDV (Software Defined Vehicle); Woven City, a mobility test course; and Cloud & AI, the digital infrastructure that supports our collaborative foundation. Additionally, essential business functions support the implementation of these teams, working together toward the realization of a "zero accident society" and the "mass production of happiness."
