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
Toyota is redefining what it means to move. We're challenging the current state of mobility by enhancing the movement of people, goods, information and energy. Centered around three core concepts - A Living Laboratory™, Human-Centered, and Ever Evolving City™ - Woven City serves as a test course for mobility to fulfill our purpose of well-being for all.
We do this by bringing together a diverse community of people with a shared passion for the future of mobility to co-create, develop and refine innovative products and services. This cross-section of social infrastructure, mobility, and people provides a unique opportunity for inventors, residents and visitors to interact seamlessly with new technologies throughout daily life in an environment that emulates a real city.
Our team designs and develops the products required to operate Woven City’s test course for future mobility. We build these operations products from scratch, and today our scope spans logistics, traffic safety, city‑wide KPI dashboards and insurance workflows. As new operational needs emerge from the city, our scope continues to expand, and we treat each new requirement as an opportunity to redesign how the city should run.
We tackle smart‑city operations challenges with technology. Working closely with the teams that build Woven City’s core technologies – including computer vision, LLMs, smart home, robotics, digital twins, guide mobility (autonomous driving) and traffic infrastructure – we turn these technologies into practical products that city operators can rely on every day.
Through these products, we continuously update how this “ever‑evolving city” operates, using technology to reinvent the way the city moves and makes decisions in response to new challenges.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for an experienced Program Manager who can lead from‑scratch development of operations products that power Woven City’s test course. You will own a portfolio of complex, multi‑disciplinary projects across the full product lifecycle. You will work with stakeholders to define requirements, set high‑level schedules and milestones, identify and manage risks, and lead the team to design and develop operations products that support day‑to‑day city operations. You will coordinate closely with cross‑functional partners both inside and outside the company, applying agile methods and best practices to maximize delivery velocity and meet the needs of our operators and users.
