Postdoctoral Researcher (PhD) - Core Learning
Meta is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join its Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) organization, focused on making significant advances in out-of-distribution generalization of foundation models.

We seek experts in the area of out-of-distribution generalization to help understand the generalization capabilities of modern AI systems and build new architectures and frameworks that achieve the next frontier of generalization. We also collaborate with the Meta Generative AI and other organizations to push the insights at scale.

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.
