Optical Scientist - DSR

At Meta Reality Labs, we build world-class consumer virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. You'll work alongside leading scientists and engineers on the technology that will make AR and VR pervasive — turning science fiction into products people use every day. The Advanced Photonics group within Display Systems Research (DSR) is hiring an Optical Scientist to push nano-photonics research toward wearable AR systems that enable advanced perceptual capabilities. In this role you will conceptualize, design, build, and validate immersive display, sensing, and optical-compute components and architectures. We're looking for someone with a first-principles understanding of nano-photonic devices — metastructures, optical computation, and visible/IR photonic integrated circuits — who is equally comfortable developing the simulation, optimization, and validation methods those devices demand, in a highly cross-functional and fast-moving environment.
