As a AR Platform Architect Lead at Meta Reality Labs, you will lead architecture on upcoming AR platforms, help drive the overall strategy & roadmap, and be a part of the teams designing, building, and testing prototypes for future consumer AR experiences. We want people who: work well in teams, can brainstorm big ideas, work in new technology areas, thrive in ambiguity, able to map tradespaces, able to drive a concept into a prototype, and can envision how a prototype could transition into a high-volume consumer product. The Reality Labs AR Platform Architect Lead will lead the definition and convergence of complex and novel sub-system and platform architectures aimed at pushing beyond the state-of-the-art consumer AR systems. These can span new sensing systems, display/optics systems, input devices, and full AR headsets. The role requires expert technical communication with cross-functional teams across ID, hardware engineering, partnerships, supply chain and core technology groups to drive incubation of new technologies from proof of concept through integration into products for mass production. This role requires excellent technical understanding of consumer electronics and AR reality systems across the stack. Starting with a broad engineering background in electrical, mechanical, optics, silicon, or related fields, we’re looking for a unique system designer or architect. The ideal candidate would have strong systems skills, previous roles driving architecture convergence on complex consumer electronics products, and experience with SoC evaluation, optical systems, sensors, CV algorithms, software, and be able to work collaboratively with experts in different fields to make architectural tradeoffs.
