Research Scientist Intern, 3D Computer Vision and Machine Learning (PhD)

The Reality Labs org aims to connect people through world-class wearables and spatial intelligence. The Spatial AI team develops cutting-edge technologies that serve as the foundation of current and future Meta products. Specifically, our engineering and research teams cover the topics of on-device and cloud-based mapping, localization, scene understanding, and spatial reasoning with a focus on incubating new technologies from research to production while iterating, prototyping, and realizing the developer and user value.

Our internships are twelve (20) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.Research Scientist Intern, 3D Computer Vision and Machine Learning (PhD) Responsibilities

Minimum QualificationsPreferred QualificationsAbout Meta Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today—beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.
