Job Details

Job Content

1. Development Area, Business Overview, and Role/Position within R&D of the Affiliated Organization

Research and development in autonomous driving is a competitive field where automotive industry players, parts manufacturers, and tech companies are fiercely competing. Its importance extends to a wide range of technical areas beyond traditional boundaries. This recruitment seeks engineers who will primarily be responsible for experiments to realize next-generation autonomous driving technology.

The role involves building prototype vehicles and conducting field driving verification and experiments using developed systems to achieve autonomous driving on urban public roads. The results obtained from research will be transferred to advanced development vehicle projects.

2. Specific Job Content and Expected Role/Position within and outside the Department

In this position, you will gain the ability to empirically solve system challenges through field experiments and accumulate experience in flexibly utilizing ideas to create new value. You will also develop the ability to involve others in promoting projects and grow into an engineer capable of handling a wide range of technical areas.

Specific job content:

  • Prototype and build intelligent vehicles to achieve autonomous driving on urban public roads.
  • Conduct driving verification and experiments using prototype vehicles to evaluate performance and identify issues.
  • Engage in the development of in-vehicle intelligent systems (software and hardware), including project management and collaboration with partner companies.
  • Establish experimental operations utilizing cloud-linked autonomous driving systems.
  • Collect and analyze experimental data to identify system issues and propose improvements.

Work Environment and Style

This environment allows you to hone your expertise through tasks such as prototyping, experimentation, evaluation, and analysis in autonomous driving technology.

Tasks are sometimes carried out by small teams of 2-3 people, or large teams of 10 or more people may be formed depending on the scale and content of the issue, with team structures changing flexibly. We emphasize not only deepening individual expertise but also maximizing overall team results.

Furthermore, projects often involve collaboration with related departments inside and outside the company, as well as prototype suppliers, and there is a culture of actively involving others to achieve goals. It is a workplace where you can proceed with tasks by building flat relationships centered on technology, regardless of position or status.

Appeal Points

In addition to acquiring fundamental skills related to autonomous driving technology, you can hone a wide range of abilities through your work. In autonomous driving experimentation, you can acquire practical skills by experiencing the process of analyzing and solving system challenges while utilizing cutting-edge technology.

In this section, you can acquire programming and data processing skills through tasks aimed at realizing efficient experimental operations. Also, when tackling experimental challenges, you may be selected as a leader of a small team, providing an early opportunity to develop management skills.

Furthermore, there are many opportunities for presentations and reports, allowing you to hone your presentation skills to effectively convey experimental results and technical proposals. Through these experiences, you can not only enhance your expertise as an engineer but also foster communication skills and leadership to promote projects.

These skills and experiences gained through research and development in autonomous driving technology will greatly contribute to your growth as an engineer and provide a sense of purpose in playing an important role in supporting the future mobility society.

In the future, the experimental prototyping department can aim for two main positions:

  • Technical Expert Position: Mastering technology and becoming a professional in that field, creating results independently.
  • Chief Position: Mastering team management and maximizing team output.

Beyond these positions, you can also aim for a section manager position that manages the department.
