Research Engineer, Robotics & Machine Learning for Human-Robot Interaction and Intelligent Vehicles
At Toyota Research Institute (TRI), we’re on a mission to improve the quality of human life. We’re developing new tools and capabilities to amplify the human experience. To lead this transformative shift in mobility, we’ve built a world-class team in Energy & Materials, Human-Centered AI, Human Interactive Driving, Large Behavioral Models, and Robotics.
The Human Aware Interactions and Learning team uses approaches from machine learning, robotics, and computer vision, along with insights from human factors literature, to devise new techniques that improve on the state of the art towards better machine understanding, prediction, and interactions with people in the driving domain, both in and around the vehicle. We work with computational and cognitive researchers to test our approaches from a variety of data sources and human-in-the-loop experiments to devise ML approaches that work with the driver.
We are seeking a highly motivated Research Engineer in Robotics and Machine Learning to support the development of experimental prototypes and simulation environments for human-robot interaction and intelligent vehicle research. The successful candidate will play a key role in designing, developing, and maintaining robotic systems and simulator rigs for data collection and experimental studies.
This is an opportunity to work on innovative research in human-robot interaction and intelligent vehicle systems in a collaborative and interdisciplinary team of experts in robotics, AI, and human factors. You will have access to state-of-the-art robotic platforms and simulation tools with the potential to contribute to academic publications and impactful real-world applications.
