Toyota Motor Corp. will increase its hiring of software engineers from 20 percent to 40 to 50 percent of technical hires from spring to boost the development of autonomous and other next-generation vehicles.

Toyota will start making job descriptions available to prospective employees to allow them to acquire the desired skills and increase their chances of being hired and retained long-term.
