Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Zolotas is a research manager and senior scientist at Toyota Research Institute with a decade of experience building robotics, machine learning, and extended reality systems that enable intuitive human-robot interaction. He combines hands-on software engineering in C/C++, Python, Java and C# with ROS, TensorFlow/PyTorch, and Linux deployment experience to move ideas from lab prototypes to real-world research. His PhD from Imperial College London focused on modeling human intentions and using augmented reality to explain robot behavior—an uncommon blend of perception, HRI, and explainability. He has taught machine learning at the university level and contributed across academia and industry, from multi-agent simulations to production-focused tooling for financial systems. Colleagues describe him as an open-minded, delivery-oriented researcher who bridges rigorous experimentation with practical system engineering.
