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
At Woven by Toyota, we tackle Autonomy challenges at the intersection of AI, Robotics, and Advanced Driving. We develop advanced Perception and Planning technologies, and their production software for multiple AD/ADAS systems. To deliver reliable data-driven technologies to millions of Toyota vehicles, we are solving complex real-world problems using large-scale data, machine learning, and state-of-the-art architectures for Perception, Prediction, and Motion Planning.
Who Are We Looking For?
The team is looking for a strong Data Scientist to drive the creation and deployment of sophisticated data models and algorithms to resolve business challenges for the Autonomy team. You will combine modern data approaches with safety standards while also considering cost efficient options. You will be an expert in deep learning and software engineering. Furthermore, you are proactive towards handling the processes required for production development and approach them by asking "What can I do for you?" with a "Giver" mindset.
