## 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. This is a paid 12-week internship opportunity and is a hybrid, in-office role. Here’s a glimpse into the Internship experience from some of our TRI interns!

The Team The long-term vision of TRI’s Accelerated Materials Design and Discovery (AMDD) program is to accelerate the development of truly emissions-free mobility. Realizing this vision will require the discovery of new materials and devices for batteries, fuel cells, and more. Our aim at TRI is to merge sophisticated computational materials modeling, new experimental data, artificial intelligence, and automation to significantly accelerate materials research in this area.

Our focus is on developing tools and capabilities to enable this acceleration. We collaborate closely with a dozen universities and national labs and our colleagues across global Toyota. AMDD seeks to develop and translate the newest technologies into practice, both within Toyota and the open research community, more broadly. This Internship We are looking for an intern researcher to contribute to the development of automated reasoning with multiscale physics-based battery models.

We will benchmark this model against existing multiscale modeling software, incorporate fundamental materials knowledge, and integrate new methods for automated scientific reasoning. Your day-to-day will include building new and researching existing multiscale physics models. We welcome you to join a unique team of scientists and engineers where you will constantly learn new skills at the interface of materials science and thoughtful AI integration.

### Responsibilities

Research multiscale physics phenomena required in battery modeling. Data analytics for experimental battery design and testing. Identify key materials understanding that enable translation of existing models to new materials. Develop new reasoning models incorporating multiscale physics. Collaborate with the team on automated reasoning methods. Present findings within the team and to the greater group.

### Qualifications

Are currently enrolled in a doctoral program in STEM subjects (chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, mechanical engineering, or a related discipline). Multiscale physics modeling experience (e.g., COMSOL, GT-AutoLion, custom-built models, etc.). Battery electrochemical testing experience (e.g., Li-ion or Na-ion). Experience with standard material characterization techniques (x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, etc.).

Published manuscripts and conference presentations pertaining to experimental or computational battery materials. Bonus Qualifications Experience coding in python. The pay range for this position at commencement of employment is expected to be between $45 and $65/hour for California-based roles. Base pay offered will depend on multiple individualized factors, including, but not limited to, a candidate's experience, skills, job-related knowledge, and market location.

TRI offers a generous benefits package including medical, dental, and vision insurance, and paid time off benefits (including holiday pay and sick time). Additional details regarding these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer of employment.
