Vehicle Platform Systems Engineer
About the position 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. Responsibilities • Develop, document, and maintain system-level vehicle platform requirements and decompose them into sub-system (e.g., ECU, sensor, communication, HMI, compute) requirements. • Support development of the systems engineering V-model process for the vehicle platform lifecycle: from architecture, requirements, and design, through verification, validation, and support for launch. • Manage interface definitions and technical risks, ensuring robust connectivity between vehicle electronics, software, and cloud-based components. • Support the definition of system architecture diagrams, data flows, and technical budgets to achieve desired system performance, safety, and serviceability. • Own the execution of system and subsystem-level analysis, including trade studies on sensors, compute, network, and vehicle mechanical integration. • Define, plan, and support execution of verification and validation activities, including bench, simulation, and vehicle-level tests. • Collaborate closely with technical program managers, product owners, and engineering leads to ensure smooth transition from research concepts to productized deployment. • Lead and participate in technical design reviews, both internally and with suppliers or external partners. Requirements • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, Materials, Electrical, Computer Engineering, or a related engineering field. • 6+ years of professional experience in complex systems development, preferably in the automotive, robotics, or embedded domains. • Demonstrated experience with requirements engineering, system architecture, systems integration, and verification/validation processes. • Strong understanding of vehicle electronics (ECU, sensors, actuators), functional safety standards, and typical automotive communication protocols (e.g., CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet). • Experience conducting technical trade studies and working cross-functionally in multidisciplinary engineering teams. • Hands-on experience with system and vehicle-level testing, debugging, and launching safety-critical products. • Excellent documentation and technical communication skills. Nice-to-haves • Experience in the design and launch of vehicle platforms supporting advanced driver assistance (ADAS), autonomous driving, or connected vehicle features. • Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure, CI/CD processes for embedded and vehicle systems, and enterprise-grade security and compliance. • Familiarity with deployment of Platform as a Service infrastructures, or large-scale distributed architectures in an enterprise or automotive environment. • Exposure to model-based design, simulation, or virtual vehicle platform architectures. Benefits • Excellent health, wellness, dental and vision coverage • A rewarding 401k program • Flexible vacation policy • Family planning and care benefits Apply tot his job
