Woven by Toyota is the mobility technology subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation. Our mission is to deliver safe, intelligent, human-centered mobility for all. Through our Arene mobility software platform, safety-first automated driving technology and Toyota Woven City — our test course for advanced mobility — we’re bringing greater freedom, safety and happiness to people and society. 

Our unique global culture weaves modern Silicon Valley innovation and time-tested Japanese quality craftsmanship. We leverage these complementary strengths to amplify the capabilities of drivers, foster happiness, and elevate well-being.

Woven City is a fully connected ecosystem, powered by hydrogen fuel cells, to be built at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan. It is envisioned as a 'living laboratory' and 'ever evolving,' incorporating different types of modern technologies. At the same time, it is also 'human-centric,' that is, it is expected to keep people safe and comfortable.

Our team will develop services that are essential to the city. As a first-party developer, we will also build a foundation upon which third-party partners can participate. Therefore, we are responsible for not just the applications but also the core software and capabilities.

Our team consists of many experienced members with international work experience. We strive to be open-minded as we create a new culture with members from different backgrounds and nationalities.

We are looking for a passionate and enthusiastic Project Manager to join our team of experienced developers and technical professionals. We are using the latest technologies to provide the best services and solutions to this city's applications and customers.

Besides project management expertise, a "can-do" mindset is highly valued in the team. This involves willingness to take on ownership, creativity to make changes and step up for challenges. We expect you to collaborate with all members, ready to jump in and help the team with your expertise, be creative to innovative solutions, and commit to our team's continuous delivery.
