Senior Systems Engineer - AD/ADAS Software

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

The Woven by Toyota North America Systems Verification & Validation (V&V) team drives systems-level innovation for advanced AD/ADAS technologies—ensuring safety, performance, and seamless integration into real-world product deployments.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We’re seeking a Systems Engineer with deep knowledge of AD/ADAS systems and safety processes. The ideal candidate can translate user requirements into robust autonomous software system requirements, manage technical interfaces and risk, and collaborate across hardware, software, and systems disciplines. Experience bridging research concepts into production programs is especially valued.

• Work cross-functionally with product, technical program management, software, and hardware engineering to analyze system behavior and design, integrate, verify and deploy features for AD/ADAS systems 
• Develop system level vehicle requirements and decompose to lower-level subsystems (e.g. sensor, compute, planner, perception, etc.)
• Develop system latency budgets based on scenario analysis and working cross functionally across different disciplines
• Generate evaluation system for assessing system performance against product level Key Performance Indicators
• Define and support the execution of systems verification and validation testing in simulation and on vehicle level
• Define system and sub-system level architecture
• Lead cross-functional technical design reviews

• 8+ years of professional work experience, preferably working around complex system development
• Master’s degree in one of the following fields: mechanical, computer engineering, systems engineering or related disciplines
• Experience working with complex safety-critical systems combining all parts of the autonomy/ADAS stack 
• Expertise in transforming high-level mission or product requirements into a robust architecture, including detailed requirement decomposition and ensuring end-to-end traceability
• Demonstrated experience performing engineering analysis & trade studies of entire system covering perception, planning, mechanical components, controls, and safety
• Demonstrated experience defining and executing verification and validation testing for complex systems
• Demonstrated experience in design, executing and interpreting verification and validation tests results in simulation environments as well as in-vehicle
• Demonstrated experience in successfully launching automotive programs or other domain-specific initiatives for customers
• Ability to influence, negotiate, and inspire others in a matrixed environment
• Proven ability to operate effectively and autonomously across multiple teams in situations of ambiguity, with only high-level direction
• Experience in requirement derivation, tracking, and verification test processes (V diagram) in automotive applications
• Understanding of typical vehicle communication protocols/interfaces
• Software coding skills (Python, C/C++ or other)
