Electrical Engineer

Meta's mission is to give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together. Through our family of apps and services, we're building a different type of company that connects billions of people around the world, gives them ways to express what matters most to them, and helps bring people closer together. Whether we're creating new products or helping a small business expand its reach, people at Meta are builders at heart. Our global teams are constantly iterating, solving problems, and working to empower people around the world to build community and connect in meaningful ways. Together, we can help people build stronger communities — we're just getting started.

At Reality Labs Research (RL-R), our goal is to explore, innovate and design novel interfaces and hardware subsystems for the next generation of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences.

We are looking for a skilled Electrical Engineer to join our Hardware Development Team, whose mission is to design, build, and test prototype electrical systems for future consumer VR and AR experiences. We are looking for a candidate with a broad set of experiences which could include analog/mixed signal design, low power design, High speed design or RF. The systems we work with could have ASICs, microcontrollers, Application processors, FPGAs, displays, audio, inertial sensors, haptic interfaces, camera sensors, and high speed I/O. You will work cross-functionally with teams that will dynamically change depending on the problem and potentially include mechanical, firmware, software, and research experts. The ideal candidate will work well in teams, can brainstorm big ideas, work in new technology areas, enjoy driving a concept into a design, and tolerate a high degree of ambiguity. More broadly, the candidate will work with a highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities.
