Job description

Summary:

The Reality Labs (RL) organization at Meta is helping more people around the world come together and connect through world-class Augmented and Virtual reality (AR/VR) products. With global departments dedicated to research and development in computer vision, machine learning, haptics, social interaction, and more. RL is committed to driving the state of the art forward through relentless innovation. The potential to change the world is immense - and we’re just getting started. Our XR Tech organization is focused on cutting edge research and development of machine perception technologies from early concepts to production level across all of Meta’s AR/VR products and surfaces. These include Quest products, Meta Glasses and Family of Apps (Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp). We develop core capabilities across a range of product domains including Avatars, AR/VR remote presence/calling, AR Commerce, AR Sharing, Spatial, Calibration and more. In this role, you will be researching and applying a range of software, computer vision and machine learning techniques for solving challenges that bridge virtual and real worlds and will impact billions of people. We're addressing a variety of technical challenges in the areas of real-time image processing, Eye Tracking, 3D reconstruction, visualization and toolings. In addition, there are opportunities to collaborate with researchers in Reality Labs Research (RL-R) and Facebook AI Research (FAIR).
