Senior Data Scientist
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 Discover, Nurture, and Adopt (DNA) division at TRI focuses on enabling innovation and transformation at Toyota by building a bridge between TRI research and Toyota products, services, and needs. We achieve this through partnership, collaboration, and shared commitment. DNA is leading a new cross-organizational project between TRI and Woven by Toyota to research and develop a fully end-to-end learned automated driving / ADAS stack. This cross-org collaborative project is harmonious with TRI’s robotics divisions' efforts in Diffusion Policy and Large Behavior Models (LBM).
We are looking for a data scientist to contribute to the end-to-end model development using Diffusion Policy and Large Behavior Models (LBM) for automated driving. This role involves focusing on analyzing large-scale data, evaluating models, curating datasets, and optimizing performance to enhance automated driving systems. You will also develop algorithms, pipelines and key strategies to enhance and streamline scalable large fleet data and vendor data. You will work closely with machine learning researchers, software engineers, and roboticists to drive execution, manage dependencies, and accelerate the transition of research models into real-world deployment.
This role offers a unique opportunity to drive innovative AI research into real-world deployment, shaping the future of automated driving. If you are passionate about building transformative AI-driven mobility solutions, we invite you to apply and help us advance the next generation of automated driving vehicle technology.
