Woven by Toyota is the mobility technology subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation. Our mission is to deliver safe, intelligent, human-centered mobility for all. Through our Arene mobility software platform, safety-first automated driving technology and Toyota Woven City — our test course for advanced mobility — we’re bringing greater freedom, safety and happiness to people and society.

Our unique global culture weaves modern Silicon Valley innovation and time-tested Japanese quality craftsmanship. We leverage these complementary strengths to amplify the capabilities of drivers, foster happiness, and elevate well-being.

Team

At Woven by Toyota, we work on a diverse set of problems ranging from solving optimization problems in 3D geometric computer vision, to minimizing latency on hardware accelerators, designing novel neural network architectures and applying and advancing the state-of-the-art of machine learning (ML) for perception, prediction, and motion planning. We are looking for doers and creative problem solvers to join us in improving mobility for everyone with self-driving technology. You will be interacting on a daily basis with other software and hardware engineers and researchers to tackle some of the most challenging problems in AI, robotics, and computer vision.

Who are we looking for?

The Perception team is looking for an experienced Machine Learning engineer to join us in developing a state-of-the-art perception system for autonomous driving. As a Machine Learning engineer in the Perception team you will be responsible to design and develop new Machine Learning models for our online perception system and deploy the model on our next-generation autonomous vehicle platform and ultimately to millions of Toyota production vehicles.

We recognize the unique capabilities each team member brings, and encourage applicants to reach out even if they do not match all of the characteristics described below.

Responsibilities:

Perception ML model R&D by prototyping, validating and iterating on existing and new model architectures.

Own development of new ML models end-to-end from data strategy, initial development, optimization, production platform validation, and fine tuning based on metrics and on road performance.

Lead a group of 1-2 people to deliver on a project and influence the overall Perception architecture and technical direction.

Enable and help other engineers on the team to be more effective through coaching and leading by example when it comes to writing high-quality code, providing high-quality code and design document reviews and delivering rigorous reports from ML experiments.

Work in a high-velocity environment and employ agile development practices.
