Job Description
At Toyota Research Institute (TRI) were on a mission to improve the quality of human life. Were developing new tools and capabilities to amplify the human experience. To lead this transformative shift in mobility weve built a worldclass team in Energy & Materials HumanCentered AI Human Interactive Driving Large Behavioral Models and Robotics.
TRI is assembling a worldclass team to develop and integrate innovative solutions that enable a robot to perform complex humanlevel mobile manipulation tasks navigate with and among people and learn and adapt over time. The team will develop deploy and validate systems in realworld environments in and around homes.
The team will be focused on heavily leveraging machine learning to marry perception prediction and action to produce robust reactive coordinated robot behaviors bootstrapping from simulation leveraging large amounts of data and adapting in real world scenarios.
TRI has the runway roadmap and expertise to transition the technology development to a product that impacts the lives of millions of people. Apply to join a fast moving team that demands highrisk innovation and learning from failures using rigorous processes to identify key technologies develop a robust high quality system and quantitatively evaluate performance. As part of the team you will be surrounded and supported by the significant core ML cloud software and hardware expertise at TRI and be a part of TRIs positive and diverse culture.
Responsibilities
- Develop integrate and deploy algorithms linking perception to autonomous robot actions including manipulation navigation and humanrobot interaction.
- Invent and deploy innovative solutions at the intersection of machine learning mobility manipulation human interaction and simulation for performing useful humanlevel tasks in and around homes.
- Invent novel ways to engineer and learn robust realworld behaviors including using optimization planning reactive control selfsupervision active learning learning from demonstration simulation and transfer learning and realworld adaptation.
- Be part of a team that fields systems performs failure analysis and iterates on improving performance and capabilities.
- Follow software practices that produce maintainable code including automated testing continuous integration code style conformity and code review.
Qualifications
- M.S. or Ph.D. in an engineering related field.
- A strong track record in inventing and deploying innovative autonomous behaviors for robotic systems in realworld environments.
- Expertise and experience in areas such as reactive control trajectory optimization coordinated wholebody control dexterous manipulation arm motion planning grasp planning navigation and human interaction.
- Expertise and experience in applying machine learning to robotics including areas such as reinforcement imitation and transfer learning.
- Strong software engineering skills preferably in C and analysis and debugging of autonomous robotic systems
- A team player with strong communication skills and a willingness to learn from others and contribute back to the robotics community with publications or open source code.
- Passionate about seeing robotics have a realworld largescale impact.
The pay range for this position at commencement of employment is expected to be between$165760and$248640/year for Californiabased roles; however base pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors including market location jobrelated knowledge skills and experience.
