Research Scientist, Computer Vision

Karkidi, Stamford, Connecticut, United States, 06925


The OpportunityOur Computer Vision (CV) team is looking for Computer Vision Research Scientists with expertise in Video Generation, Spatio-temporal Representation Learning, Vision-as-Inverse-Graphics (including Differentiable Rendering), or related fields, to improve dynamic scene understanding for robots! We are working on some of the hardest scientific challenges around the safe and effective usage of large robotic fleets, simulation, and prior knowledge (geometry, physics, domain knowledge, behavioral science), not only for automation but also for human augmentation.As a Research Scientist, you will work with a team proposing, conducting, and transferring innovative research. You will use large amounts of sensory data and simulation to address open problems, publish at top academic venues, and test your ideas in the real world (including on our robots of course!). You will also work closely with other teams at TRI to transfer and ship our most successful algorithms and models towards world-scale long-term autonomy and advanced assistance systems.Responsibilities

Conduct high-reaching research that solves problems of high value and validates them in benchmarks and systems.Push the boundaries of knowledge and the state of the art in ML areas including simulation, perception, prediction, and planning for autonomous driving and robotics.Partner with a multidisciplinary team including other research scientists and engineers across the CV team, TRI, Toyota, and our university partners.Present results in verbal and written communications, internally, at top international venues, and via open-source contributions to the community.Lead collaborations with our external research partners (e.g., Stanford, Berkeley, MIT) and mentor research interns.Qualifications

PhD or equivalent years of experience in Machine Learning, Robotics, Computer Vision, or a related field.Deep expertise in at least one key ML area among Computer Vision, RL, ML theory, AI ethics.Consistent record of publishing at high-impact conferences/journals (CVPR, ICLR, NeurIPS, RSS, ICRA, ICCV, ECCV, PAMI, IJCV, etc.) on the aforementioned topics.Proficient at scientific python, Unix, and a common DL framework (preferably PyTorch). Experience with distributed learning (especially on AWS) is a plus.You can identify, propose, and lead new research projects, working in collaboration with other researchers and engineers to complete it from initial idea to working solution.You are intrigued by large-scale challenges in ML, especially in the space of Automated Driving, Robotics, and for societal good in general.You are a reliable teammate. You like to think big and go deeper. You care about openness and delivering with integrity.The pay range for this position at commencement of employment is expected to be between $165,760 and $238,280/year for California-based roles; however, base pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Note that TRI offers a generous benefits package (including 401(k) eligibility and various paid time off benefits, such as vacation, sick time, and parental leave) and an annual cash bonus structure. Details of participation in these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer of employment.
