Form of workMeta’s Reality Labs Research (RL-R) brings together a world-class team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create the future of augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR). The Eye tracking team within RL-R is working on research to enable Eye tracking for everyone everywhere, which is key to enabling many groundbreaking experiences.In this role, you will join a team of software and research engineers to collaborate with research scientists, electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and user experience designers. You will learn constantly, dive into new areas with unfamiliar technologies, and embrace the ambiguity of AR/VR problem solving. Together, we are going to build cutting-edge prototypes, technologies, and toolsets that can define a paradigm shift in how we interact with our surroundings. We invite you to step into the adventure of a lifetime, as we make science fiction real and change the world.This role will focus on developing software that integrates with research hardware for data capture, synchronization, digital signal processing, and real-time visualization. These systems are performance sensitive and often require careful synchronization. You will have a tight interaction loop with your science and engineering collaborators.
- Work side-by-side with research scientists, electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and UX designers to enable new experiences in AR and VR
- Design, develop, integrate, and test software for advanced prototypes
- Create tools, infrastructure, and documentation to accelerate research
- Analyze and improve the signal quality of research systems
- Collaborate with other research and engineering teams to identify gaps, build solutions, and transfer technology
- Perform code reviews that improve Software Engineering quality
- Collaborate in a team environment across multiple scientific and engineering disciplines, making the architectural tradeoffs required to rapidly deliver software solutions
- Write clean, readable code, debug complex problems that span systems, prioritize ruthlessly and get things done with a high level of efficiency
- Learn constantly, dive into new areas with unfamiliar technologies, and embrace the ambiguity of AR/VR problem solving
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Demonstrated C++ and Python expertise
- 5+ years of professional programming experience

- Experience in optics (lasers, lenses, optical sensors)
- Experience working in AR/VR
- Experience developing software in a research environment
About Meta:
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.
Meta is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities in our recruiting process. If you need any assistance or accommodations due to a disability, please let us know at accommodations-ext@fb.com.
