At Meta Reality Labs, we are developing the future of Wearables and Mixed Reality products. As a Display Image Quality Engineer in our AR organization, you will be involved in the simulation and validation of novel display architectures and control systems to ensure high-quality visual experience across a vast range of environments and AR experiences. As part of this role, you will bring together and expand upon the disparate simulation models of the component parts of our image chain, and employ this end-to-end pipeline in a continuous feedback loop to optimize product image quality requirements against system constraints. This work involves working closely with a highly interdisciplinary team of display, software, silicon, and metrology engineers, as well as with scientists with backgrounds in optics, graphics and and human perception.
