About the Role

Woven by Toyota is enabling Toyota’s transformation into a mobility company by challenging the current state of mobility through human-centric innovation. The Arene Product Management team is seeking a product manager to turn a complex technical platform into clear product bets that create measurable value for customers, users, and the business. You will work closely with engineering, design, commercialization, and partner teams.

Responsibilities

Maintain a current, evidence-based understanding of customer needs, user needs, and market dynamics for your product area.
Synthesize input from UX research, commercialization, partnerships, and field teams into clear problem definitions and opportunity areas.
Partner with technical benchmarking, competitive intelligence, and data teams to understand Arene’s position in the market and opportunities to differentiate.
Own the content of the roadmap, Features, and Epics for your product area: problem statement, use cases, acceptance criteria, business value, and success metrics.
Partner with the Product Planner, who owns the roadmap and release processes, to bring clear, prioritized, and well-framed proposals into intake and planning.
Collaborate with the technical lead, systems/architecture, UX, and project management to ensure definitions are feasible and appropriately scoped.
Make thoughtful trade-offs, documenting what is not included and why when scope must flex.
Commit to a feasible scope in collaboration with engineering, Product Owner, and project management before build begins.
Resolve product decisions quickly once development starts so teams are not blocked and delivery risk is visible and managed.
Support the Project Manager and Product Owner with clear intent, timely decisions, and scope adjustments when constraints emerge.
Make the go/no-go recommendation for features in your product area, ensuring they meet agreed acceptance criteria and are ready for customers.
Work within the Arene Release Process with the Release Manager; ensure customer- and user-facing teams have what they need for a successful launch.
Track success metrics defined during Definition and partner with Arene Data and field teams to interpret results.
Gather structured feedback from customers and users, directly or via services teams, and decide whether to iterate, scale, or sunset features in your product area.
Identify the right cross-functional stakeholders and provide the space where alignment happens.
Operate using a PUSH, not PULL principle: create clear forums and expectations; teams are expected to bring updates and concerns proactively.
Maintain high-quality internal documentation so that decisions, trade-offs, and context are discoverable and durable.

Requirements

10+ years of experience in product management or closely related roles (e.g., platform PM, technical program management, solutions/product owner) in software or complex technical products.
Experience working with platforms, developer tools, or infrastructure products, ideally in automotive, mobility, or other safety-critical domains.
Demonstrated ability to define and ship products end-to-end: discovery, definition, delivery, launch, and post-release iteration.
Strong skills in product definition and roadmapping – turning ambiguous inputs into clear problem statements, use cases, and prioritized roadmaps.
Experience collaborating with engineering leaders on technical feasibility, trade-offs, and incremental delivery plans.
Proven stakeholder management and communication skills, including the ability to synthesize complex topics into clear written and visual artifacts for diverse audiences.
Business-level English (written and spoken).
Business-level Japanese (JLPT N2 or equivalent), or strong willingness and plan to reach this level quickly while already able to work effectively with Japanese stakeholders.
