About Woven by Toyota

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.

TEAM

The mission of the Legal & IP team is to drive innovation and help realize a safer mobility society by providing agile, effective legal support and delivering clear, strategic advice in a fast-moving business environment.

Our team covers a broad range of legal areas, including export control, privacy & data protection, antitrust, and subcontracting regulations. We partner closely with internal teams and global companies to build innovative collaborations and strategic partnerships. We also play a key role in supporting projects like Woven City — our smart city initiative based in Shizuoka — by providing legal advice, negotiating contracts, and proposing business schemes to management.

In 2024, we integrated privacy-related functions from multiple departments into a dedicated privacy team within Legal & IP, enabling us to deliver consistent, high-quality legal services across the organization.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We are seeking passionate legal professionals who can go beyond traditional legal advice — leveraging not only legal expertise but also technical insight and business strategy to drive the success of our projects.
