Job Description

As a System Engineer at Facebook Reality Labs, you will be responsible for productizing a sensor subsystem that is core to delivering transformative experiences in Oculus AR/VR products. You will join an agile team that is laser-focused on incubating winning prototypes, establishing new process capabilities with supply-chain partners, and releasing product sub-systems that are fully hardened for high-volume manufacturing (HVM). We want someone who can lead a cross-functional team that comprises a wide range of disciplines, who works through others and goes between brainstorming big ideas and paying relentless attention to critical performance, yield, and integration milestones. Based on a robust engineering background, candidates should have earned their track record of bringing multiple products from concept into HVM.

Systems Engineer - On-Device Sensing Responsibilities

* Design & development of sensor technologies that integrate into the Oculus AR/VR product roadmap.

* Define sub-system requirements with the product team, then deliver AR/VR hardware, software, and calibration that meets specifications. This includes: hardware (optics, electronics, mechanics, silicon, sensor, data-communication), software (computer vision algorithms, calibration, modeling, analysis), and performance analysis.

* Deliver prototypes and Plan of Record systems.

* Support the TPM in evaluation, validation, and delivery to specs by metrology, user studies, safety studies, FEMA analysis, environmental analysis, and dogfooding.

* Collaborate closely with other AR/VR subcomponents and systems and ensure successful integration.

* Establish processes and quality testing necessary for delivery of robust/reliable software.

* Engage with all internal stake-holders and users across multiple research and engineering teams.

* Define testing and qualification plans at different stages of hardware development, from concept to product ramp.

* Identify external partnerships and work with the TPM and corresponding engineer to manage the partnership.

* Identify key hardware and software risks and work with the team to develop and implement contingencies.

* Document information necessary for manufacturing, calibration, testing, and integration.

* Able to lead ambiguous programs to completion with little oversight or clear definition.

Minimum Qualifications

* BS or MS in Engineering, or equivalent experience.

* Experience designing consumer products, at least 1 full product life cycle concept to launch.

* 5+ years cross-functional system experience, working through others.

* Product development experience.

* Development and execution experience in building process on a manufacturing scale.

Preferred Qualifications

* Experience with multiple full life cycle product launches.

* Experience with 3D tracking methods, algorithms, devices and systems.

* Experience with design/manufacturing of small form-factor sensing or imaging systems.

* Process development experience for optical parts, sensors, computer vision, software and hardware integration.

* Experience developing manufacturing process(es) for coatings, molding, replication, diamond-turning.

* Rapid prototyping experience (i.e. 3D printing, laser cutting, etc.).

* Experience in opto-mechanical integration and system design.
