Electrical Engineer: Reality Labs

Redmond, WA

At Meta's Reality Labs Research, our goal is to make world-class consumer virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. Come work alongside industry-leading scientists and engineers to create the technology that makes Mixed Reality and Augmented Reality pervasive and universal. Join the adventure of a lifetime as we make science fiction real and change the world. We are a world-class team of researchers and engineers creating the future of augmented and virtual reality, which together will become as universal and essential as smartphones and personal computers are today. And just as personal computers have done over the past 45 years, AR and VR will ultimately change everything about how we work, play, and connect.We are looking for a talented Electrical Engineer to help with our mission to accelerate AR and AI from a human perspective. This role requires a broad set of experiences, including embedded design, analog/mixed signal design, RF, multimodal sensing, display integration, or low power design. And will handle circuit simulation and modeling, schematics capture, and layout design involving high-speed digital systems and programmable logic. You will work in a dynamic cross-functional team including electrical, mechanical, and software engineers, as well as design and research experts.
