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
Software development in the automotive industry comes with unique challenges. Developers need to build, test, secure, and deploy software across cloud environments, mobile devices, embedded systems, and vehicles. They also need modern AI-enabled tools that are safe, governed, observable, and integrated with enterprise systems.
The Developer Productivity function builds tools, platforms, and workflows that help engineering teams at Woven by Toyota and the broader Toyota organization move faster while keeping safety, security, and quality as top priorities.
As part of this function, the Generative AI Engineering team builds enterprise-grade AI platforms and developer-facing AI capabilities. We focus on secure access to large language models, AI gateways, internal AI tooling, model usage governance, identity-aware authorization, cost controls, observability, and integrations with engineering systems.
Our goal is to make AI useful, reliable, and safe at enterprise scale.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for a hands-on software engineer who can design, build, and operate enterprise-grade Generative AI platforms and services. You should be comfortable working across backend systems, cloud infrastructure, identity and access management, API gateways, LLM providers, and internal developer tools.
You should understand that production AI systems require more than prompts and chat interfaces. We are looking for someone who can build reliable, secure, observable, and maintainable systems around AI usage, including request routing, authentication, authorization, policy enforcement, auditability, cost controls, evaluation, and operational support.
You should be comfortable working through ambiguity, comparing different approaches, explaining trade-offs clearly, and making pragmatic technical decisions based on user needs, enterprise constraints, and long-term maintainability. You will work closely with software engineers, platform engineers, security teams, identity teams, and internal stakeholders.
You will work in a hybrid environment requiring your presence onsite at least 3 days per week.
