About 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

Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) - detecting driver inattentiveness such as visual distraction and eye closure using in-cabin cameras - are becoming a standard, safety-critical feature in new vehicles. As a supplier delivering DMS to Toyota, our work spans the full mass-production lifecycle: from requirements analysis and product implementation through to functional safety, quality assurance, and delivery to the customer. Our challenges include robustly monitoring drivers, passengers, and the driving environment, and handling anything that could obstruct the camera from recognizing facial features, such as eyewear or facial hair.
For the next-generation In-Cabin Monitoring System (IMS), we aim to enhance capabilities, improve robustness, and expand use cases so that drivers maintain the appropriate level of focus depending on the situation and the level of automation in the vehicle - while meeting the stringent safety and quality standards required for automotive mass production.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We are looking for an engineer with a growth mindset and a passion for making safe, driverless vehicles a reality and who is excited to grow with us in mass-production automotive development. Our daily work includes analyzing customer and system requirements, implementing and evaluating software, and driving improvements through data analysis - all while considering safety and quality from the earliest phase. You have hands-on experience developing software for a product from the requirements phase through product release, and you are eager to deepen your expertise in automotive safety and quality domains such as functional safety, SOTIF, DRBFM, and quality assurance. 

We value those with a strong interest in developing a production driver-monitoring system, analyzing customer and system requirements, and deriving software implementation requirements based on those analyses. Under the hybrid work policy, you will work from the office three days a week and report to the Manager responsible for In-Cabin Perception Development.

  • Practical experience applying SOTIF (ISO 21448)
