Senior Field Solutions Architect, Large Behavior Models Robotics

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 ground-breaking shift in mobility weve built a world-class team in Automated Driving Energy & Materials Human-Centered AI Human-Interactive Driving Large Behavior Models and Robotics.

The Mission

Make general-purpose robots a reality.

The Challenge

We envision a future where robots assist with household chores and cooking aid the older population in maintaining their independence and enable people to spend more time on the activities they enjoy most. To achieve this robots must be able to operate reliably in complex unstructured environments. Our mission is to answer the question What will it take to create truly general-purpose robots that can accomplish a wide variety of tasks in settings like human homes with minimal human supervision. We believe that the answer lies in cultivating large-scale datasets of physical interaction from a variety of sources and building on the latest advances in machine learning to learn general-purpose robot behaviors from this data.

Robotics

The mission of TRI Robotics is to invent and prove new robotic capabilities required to enable home robots to solve the challenges faced by an aging society. As part of that mission we are developing a sophisticated suite of open source robotics software called Drake ( ( ( ( for use in our internal robotics projects and the wider community of advanced robotics researchers.

The Team

Join Toyota Research Institutes LBM-C division to change the world by creating and shipping useful general-purpose AI-driven robots. Within this division the hardware teams mission is to build a highly scalable fleet of robots capable of performing the same general mobile manipulation tasks as humans in human-like ways and at human-like speeds via shared autonomy. Join us to build the future of general-purpose physical automation.
