TEAM
The ADAS SDK team is developing a development environment and middleware for the automated driving/advanced driver assistance system (AD/ADAS Systems) that will be installed in the vehicle to be released by Toyota. Highly efficient middleware and an advanced development support environment are required in this area. Our team has developed a framework that seamlessly links the PC-based simulation environment and the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) installed in the actual vehicle, and provides it to application developers to improve their development efficiency and to contribute to the realization of high-performance and cost-competitive AD/ADAS Systems.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for engineers who are passionate about making driverless vehicles come true and are excited to work with us to create a better future for mobility. Daily tasks include the development of testing mechanisms of automated driving software and the creation of development environments and tools. We are required to accumulate improvements based on feedback from other developers and our own tests and trials. Skills in modern software development and solid experiences in developing real time systems are the essential prerequisite.
If you are currently located outside of Japan we will set up an interview over Google Hangout Meet or Skype.
