Job description

Summary:

Reality Labs at Meta is building products that make it easier for people to connect with the ones they love most, enjoy top-notch, wire-free AR/MR, and push the future of computing platforms. We are a team of world-class experts dedicated to AR/VR research, computer vision, and machine learning. We are committed to driving the state-of-the-art forward through relentless innovation. AR and VR potential to change the world is immense -- and we're just getting started. The XRTech team explores, develops, and delivers new cutting-edge technologies that serve as the foundation of current and future Reality Labs products. From mixed reality and human interaction to natural input and beyond, XRTech is focused on taking new technologies from early concept to the product level while iterating, prototyping, and realizing the human value and new experiences they open up. The 3D mapping team's mission is to develop cutting-edge core technologies for 3D mapping and contextual understanding for metaverse digital twins. Our team is building large-scale persistent maps for AR and VR products at Meta. The precise geometric representation of the environment enables rich and consistent AR and VR experiences. We cover three pillars of work:

1. cloud mapping pipeline and platform serving various use cases
2. core mapping CV algorithm development including conventional geometry-based and machine learning-based Structure-from-motion (Structure-from-Motion), VIO & SLAM
3. large-scale mapping and maps management.
