About the Team

Toyota Connected India is looking for an experienced Data Scientist to develop models for predicting traffic behaviour scenarios using data from simulations and real-world sources. You'll work on reinforcement learning, complex event detection, and probabilistic forecasting for real-time decision-making in autonomous systems and smart infrastructure

What you will do:

• Design predictive models for trajectory forecasting, traffic participant's behavior, and crossing probabilities.
• Develop risk scoring mechanisms using time-shifted risk prediction and sliding time windows.
• Implement multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) frameworks to simulate and train cooperative behaviors.
• Work with simulation teams to integrate ground truth scenarios and replayable data sets.
• Build scoring algorithms for different data dimensions based on the severity and impact.
• Evaluate model performance using precision, recall, and event-level accuracy.
• Collaborate with data engineers to define feature pipelines and streaming inputs.

You are a successful candidate if you have

• 5+ years of experience in applied data science, preferably in real-time or simulation-based environments.
• Strong proficiency in Python, NumPy, Pandas, and deep learning frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow.
• Experience with time-series analysis, Bayesian models, or probabilistic forecasting.
• Understanding of reinforcement learning, especially multi-agent settings.
• Knowledge of vehicle kinematics, trajectory forecasting, or intelligent transportation systems.

What's in it for you

• Top-of-the-line compensation! You'll be treated like the professional we know you are and left to manage your own time and workload.
• Yearly gym membership reimbursement & Free catered lunches.
• No dress codes! We trust you are responsible enough to choose what's appropriate to wear for the day.
• Opportunity to build products that improve the safety and convenience of millions of customers.
• New cool office space and other awesome benefits!
