Machine Learning Research Scientist, Mechanical Intuition in Multimodal Models

Job description

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 advancing the state of the art in AI, robotics, driving, and material sciences. The Team: The Future Factory team in TRI's Energy and Materials division focuses on developing cutting-edge tools and methods to accelerate change and increase flexibility and efficiency in Toyota's product design and manufacturing, to speed the transition to an emissions-free world. To achieve this we are building end-to-end AI systems that can reason about how physical objects are made — from design intent through to the assembly of real parts — and developing the learning infrastructure needed to train and evaluate these systems at scale. The Opportunity: We are looking for a Research Scientist to join us in building intelligent systems for physical assembly. This role is well-suited for a recent PhD graduate with a strong implementation track record and a genuine curiosity about how things are made. As a researcher on the team, you will design and implemen...
