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.
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 humanintheloop 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 humanrobot 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 humanrobot interaction and intelligent vehicle systems in a collaborative and interdisciplinary team of experts in robotics AI and human factors. You will have access to stateoftheart robotic platforms and simulation tools with the potential to contribute to academic publications and impactful realworld applications.
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain robotic platforms and simulation environments for humanrobot interaction and intelligent vehicle research.
- Implement and integrate robotic systems using ROS (Robot Operating System) and other relevant frameworks.
- Work with hardware components (sensors actuators cameras etc. to build experimental rigs and testbeds.
- Develop software tools and algorithms for realtime data collection system control data analysis and performance evaluation.
- Collaborate with researchers engineers and domain experts to design and implement humanintheloop experiments and analyze the resulting data.
- Contribute to the development of novel machine learning approaches for driver assistance and humanrobot interaction.
- Maintain and document software and hardware developments to ensure reproducibility and scalability.
Qualifications
- Masters degree or equivalent experience in Robotics Computer Science Electrical/Mechanical such or a related field.
