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 in Energy & Materials, Human-Centered AI, Human Interactive Driving, Large Behavioral Models, and Robotics.

The Team

The Robotics UX team applies user-centered design principles to help shape the robotics strategy at TRI and design robots that support manufacturing teams in their day-to-day work. 

The Role

We are seeking a user-centered and detail-oriented Front-End Developer with UX experience to join our Robotics UX team. The ideal candidate has 8+ years of software development experience as well as experience working directly with or on a User Experience (UX) team. In this role, you will collaborate daily with UX designers, UX researchers, robotics engineers, and back-end developers. You will initially focus on building the interface for a brand new mobile manipulation robot, helping to create an intuitive, novel interface that supports manufacturing team members in their daily work. 

Responsibilities

  • Develop responsive and interactive web applications using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Work closely with UX/UI designers to apply user-centered design principles and maintain a consistent visual style across projects.
  • Contribute to research and usability testing activities to gather user feedback and inform design iterations and improvements.
  • Optimize applications for maximum speed and scalability.
  • Ensure cross-browser compatibility and mobile responsiveness.
  • Write clean, maintainable code and participate in code reviews.
  • Stay up-to-date with emerging trends and technologies in front-end development and UX design.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Web Development, UX Design, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Proven experience as a Front-End Developer, with a strong portfolio showcasing relevant projects.
  • Fluency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, Vue.js).
  • Experience with UX design tools (e.g., Figma, Adobe Illustrator) and methodologies.
  • Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git).
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Training or coursework in UX research and design methodologies.
  • Experience developing interfaces for physical devices or hardware.
  • Have a background in front-end and back-end problem solving and are comfortable working across the stack.
  • Experience with front-end performance optimization techniques.
  • Knowledge of accessibility best practices.
  • Familiarity with back-end technologies (e.g., Node.js, PHP) is a plus.
The pay range for this position at commencement of employment is expected to be between $202,400 and $303,600/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.
