ML Platform Engineering Manager, Behavior Planning & Prediction

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.

Woven by Toyota's AD/ADAS organization is developing the core algorithms for safe and robust driving of complex and uncertain real-world environments. Our teams are contributing to next generation autonomy and ADAS active safety systems through core algorithms, data-driven approaches, and efficient architectures, working across the spectrum of active safety and L2-L4 Autonomy towards production targets with Toyota. The Behavior Department within AD/ADAS is responsible for accelerating ML and AI technology to deliver state-of-the-art and safe vehicle behaviors. Working across the spectrum of active safety and L2-L4 autonomy, the team delivers core technology in the areas of perception, planning, control, and HMI towards production targets with Toyota.

We are seeking an experienced, technical, hands‑on Engineering Manager to lead a group of highly talented and passionate ML Frameworks engineers. This role focuses on developing and deploying efficient cloud and data curation pipelines, automated training, evaluation and release pipelines, and data introspection tools that accelerate and improve our Behavior model training. The ideal candidate has a deep passion for self‑driving technology and its potential global impact. You will use your domain expertise in machine learning, a comprehensive understanding of the model lifecycle, and experience developing tools and pipelines related to vehicle behavior (planning, prediction, control, HMI). Success in this role requires a candidate who thrives in a fast‑paced environment and is eager to push the boundaries to continuously improve efficiency and performance. Prior experience building and deploying real‑world autonomous driving products and collaborating across multiple departments is essential. You will have the chance to design and implement innovative machine learning pipelines, and help accelerate the release of models for our next-generation autonomous vehicle platform, influencing future Toyota customer vehicles. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about self-driving car technology and its potential impact on humanity.

The base pay for this position ranges from $161,000 - $264,500 a year.
