Woven by Toyota Verification & Validation Software Engineer at Woven by Toyota working on the Arene platform for software-defined vehicles. Role involves writing production C++ and integrating software with vehicle hardware and ECUs.
Responsibilities
Woven by Toyota is Toyota’s software and mobility subsidiary. Arene is its flagship software development platform and vehicle software foundation for software-defined vehicles (SDVs). It combines an SDK, tools, and data capabilities to standardize development, enable software reuse across hardware and vehicle generations, and support continuous improvement (including OTA).
Arene has already shipped in production (first on the new Toyota RAV4 for Toyota Safety Sense / ADAS and cockpit features; expanding toward ~50 models and 10 million vehicles annually by 2030). It emphasizes decoupling software from specific hardware via abstractions and APIs, while still requiring rigorous real-vehicle and hardware-in-the-loop integration. Work spans ADAS/safety systems, cockpit, middleware, and (increasingly) more centralized vehicle architectures.
This role is for a hands-on engineer who writes production C++ and owns the hard part of making software actually work with real vehicle hardware, ECUs, sensors, and networks. The strongest fit is typically someone who has worked in software integration or embedded systems roles at a self-driving, autonomous, or advanced ADAS company, where they shipped code that ran on the vehicle under real-time, safety, and resource constraints.
