About this roleWe are creating world-class consumer wearable experiences - as a member of Meta’s Hardware engineering organization, you will play a crucial role in developing novel concepts and technologies for next-generation wearables. You will design, model, optimize, and prototype advanced systems—including optical, camera, sensor, wireless, and system-level solutions—and develop software models to predict and optimize full wearable device performance.
Responsibilities
Pioneer fundamental “0 to 1” research in physical sciences (hardware, systems, materials, processes etc).
* Drive long-term research roadmaps (5–10+ years), establish feasibility of breakthrough technologies, and create initial enablers.
* Conceive, design, and prototype advanced concepts for next-generation Hardware products.
* Develop and optimize hardware, software and/or ML models to predict and enhance performance across multiple HW domains.
* Collaborate with cross-functional teams to advance the entire product pipeline (hardware, software, integration, infrastructure, and applications).
* Architect and integrate complex hardware/software systems.
* Develop and refine algorithms while resolving discrepancies between model predictions and measured performance data across all technology domains.
* Prototype and characterize new technologies across a variety of HW platforms.
* Utilize scientific programming languages for modeling, simulation, algorithm development, and data analysis.
* Analyze experimental and simulation data to inform design decisions and optimize system performance.
* Conduct research in relevant fields and disseminate findings through peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations, and technical reports.
