We are looking for a Machine Learning Researcher with expertise and passion for foundation models, as well as training and fine-tuning on large, industrial-scale datasets. This researcher would work to define new lines of research in the generative AI space in relation to training and fine-tuning models representing human behaviors and cognitive processes, such as changes in beliefs and preferences over time. This researcher may also apply data science expertise to inform carbon neutral policy and strategy decisions.Responsibilities - Conduct daring research, primarily in the area of generative AI models, that solves open problems of high practical and/or ethical value and validate it in real-world benchmarks and systems
- Push the boundaries of knowledge and the state of the art in Human-Centered AI, including: NLP, multi-modal models, and time-varying language models
- Stay up to date on the state-of-the-art in Machine Learning theories, practice, and software
- Conduct exploratory analyses with large datasets to identify areas of opportunity and address strategic questions
- Collaborate with scientists in the Carbon Neutrality Department to craft and shape our research program and to communicate research to Toyota partners
- Publish findings in academic journals and/or conferences
- Contribute to technology transfer of research throughout Toyota
Qualifications- PhD in natural language processing, computer vision, machine learning, or related field
- 3+ years of experience in machine learning research or related projects
- Experience with generative AI models

- Capable of working collaboratively across subject areas and functions
- Desire to work on challenging open-ended research projects
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously while soliciting feedback
- Strong interpersonal skills and an excellent teammate
- Strong data science skills. Proficiency in R and/or Python
- Proficiency in other big data languages and tools for cloud environments (e.g., Databricks, SQL, PySpark)
- Ability to communicate sophisticated concepts clearly across different audiences
- Please include a link to your Google Scholar page
Bonus Qualifications- Experience with language transformers, vision transformers, diffusion models, or multi-modal models
- Ability to balance multiple projects, including short-term, targeted analyses and novel, innovative projects that may span years
