Data Engineering, Senior Engineer, Digital Twin Platform

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.
TEAMThe Digital Twin Platforms team is one of the core Woven Inventor Garage teams under the Woven City umbrella. As such, it is also working towards the realization of Woven City's vision: "Expand mobility. Enhance humanity. Engage society." We are developing a robust software platform that will enable inventors and business owners to "test" their products in a virtual environment before deploying to the physical Woven City. The platform will deliver analytics to help with decision-making based on both simulated results and more importantly operational data collected from the physical city, such as residents daily life, traffic dynamics, energy consumption, etc.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FORWe're looking for an engineer who is passionate about enabling a novel digital twin platform. It is one of the key catalysts of innovations in Woven City. Though Woven City is a 'living laboratory', it would be better that inventors' ideas can be tested in a virtual environment before testing it in the real city. The platform will accelerate innovations by providing a city-scale simulation and testing environment for their ideas, services, and products. It can be used to simulate and digitally reproduce various city activities, such as residents' daily life, traffic dynamics, energy consumption, which requires complex interactions between the agents and the environment. We are looking for someone who loves the vision of the digital twin platform and can contribute to the development of the software and data services needed to run, monitor, and scale the digital twin platform and supporting services.
