Electrical Engineer - AR/VR Hardware Prototyping

Meta Careers; Redmond, Northern (WA, KY); Hybrid; USD 120,000 - 160,000; Full time

Job summary

Meta is seeking an Electrical Engineer for Reality Labs Hardware in Redmond, WA to own the electronics behind cutting-edge prototype displays and illumination systems. You will design drive electronics and PCBs, bring up custom boards, and collaborate with mechanical and opto-mechanical engineers to push wearable near-eye devices forward.

The role involves end-to-end hardware development, instrumentation for trustworthy data, and transitioning from benchtop setups to wearable demonstrations in a

Qualifications

• Responsibilities include end-to-end prototype electronics ownership: requirements, architecture, schematic capture, layout direction, fabrication, bring-up, characterization, and documentation.
• Design rigid, flex, and rigid-flex PCBs for near-eye form factors within weight and power constraints, coordinating with mechanical/opto-mechanical engineers.
• Design precision drive electronics for illumination sources, displays, sensors and modulators: multi-channel current control, frame-synchronized pulsed waveforms, photodiode feedback, thermal interlocks, and crosstalk control.

Responsibilities

• Own prototype electronics end to end: requirements, architecture, schematic capture, layout direction, fabrication, bring-up, characterization, and documentation, including build-versus-buy decisions.
• Design rigid, flex, and rigid-flex PCBs for near-eye form factors under weight and power constraints, collaborating with mechanical and opto-mechanical teams.
• Design precision drive electronics for illumination sources, displays, and sensors/modulators: multi-channel current control, frame-synchronized pulses, photodiode feedback, thermal interlocks, crosstalk and uniformity control.
