Staff Program Manager - Development Ecosystem

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.

The AD / ADAS Program Management Team's goal is to enable the successful delivery of technology from the engineering organization to achieve business goals. The Program Management function in Woven By Toyota's (WbyT's) AD / ADAS organization is a partner to the Engineering and Product functions and owns the technical execution of the AD / ADAS portfolio maintaining the organization's plan of record and ensuring execution velocity and agility of a highly cross functional engineering team distributed across multiple locations.

Our team members come from a mix of hardware, vehicle, and software backgrounds but we all share a common drive to enable the delivery of complex technical engineering products to the world. We are problem solvers who make things happen by setting and communicating clear goals and supporting engineering teams to deliver the best safety critical autonomy through the technical and organizational complexity.

We are seeking an experienced and passionate Staff Program Manager for this position. The ideal candidate will be comfortable navigating ambiguity, engaging with leadership, and collaborating with teams across WbyT and external stakeholders to steer programs toward successful delivery. You should be highly motivated by the challenge of bringing complex technology programs to market and adept at solving interdisciplinary problems with a strong focus on execution. In this role, you will work with a talented group of cross-functional stakeholders across organizations to develop execution plans that facilitate the launch of products and features. This role requires deep operational expertise in the development ecosystem in support of the autonomous driving stack and product, paired with a strong cross-functional communication, and a data-driven approach to ensure continuous improvements on engineering velocity developing the autonomy stack while optimizing performance, cost, and safety. Additionally, a genuine interest in connecting the on-board software running on vehicles with the off-board stack such as simulation, data and ML infrastructure.

Responsibilities

  • Own and drive the Program connecting on-board and off-board components (e.g., data, simulation, dev tools, ML infra, CI / CD, triage) to improve autonomy development efficiency and accelerate iteration cycles.
  • Define program scope, milestones, and success metrics, aligning success of the program with broader autonomy programs in the portfolio.
  • Lead cross-functional planning, execution across Data, ML, Simulation and Tools Teams.
  • Leverage a holistic understanding of the development ecosystem for AD / ADAS products to establish robust best practices and inform technical roadmaps.
  • Drive transparency and accountability by enforcing clear ownership, deliverables, and integration checkpoints, while proactively resolving cross-team blockers and aligning on priorities.
  • Communicate program status, risks, and decisions to senior leadership and stakeholders with clarity and precision. Partner with product, engineering, and operations to maintain alignment and execution momentum.

Minimum Qualifications

  • 10+ years of program management experience within a software, automotive, aerospace, robotics, or mobility-related industry.
  • Knowledge of the AD / ADAS production development ecosystem for in-vehicle and off-vehicle stacks.
  • Proven track record of leading large programs to successful delivery spanning cross-functional engineering organizations of 100+ stakeholders.
  • Experience driving technical programs in ambiguity, with only high-level direction across distributed teams and diverse business cultures.
  • Experience with establishing and evolving program operations and decision-making structures, adapting to team culture and operating constraints.
  • Nice To Haves

  • Experience in Autonomous Vehicle programs, Automotive, or OEM / Tier-1 environments
  • Experience in the development of autonomy features for L2 / L4 systems
  • Proficiency in Business-level Japanese

  • We are committed to creating a modern work environment that supports our employees and their loved ones. We offer many options of the best programs to allow you to do your most meaningful work and to help you shape the future of mobility. Excellent health, wellness, dental and vision coverage, a rewarding 401k program, flexible vacation policy, family planning and care benefits. We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity. Any information we receive from you will be used only in the hiring and onboarding process.
