System Validation And Verification Engineer

As a System Validation and Verification Engineer at Meta Reality Labs, you will be a part of the teams designing, building, validating and testing future consumer virtual reality (VR) experiences. We want people who work well in teams, can brainstorm big ideas, work in new technology areas, thrive in ambiguity, are able to map tradespaces, are able to drive a concept into a prototype, and can envision how a prototype could transition into a high-volume consumer product.The System Validation and Verification Engineer will ensure the convergence of complex and novel sub-system and product architectures aimed at pushing the state-of-the-art consumer VR systems. These can span new sensing systems, display and optics systems, input devices, and full VR headsets. The role requires expert technical communication with cross-functional teams across Industrial Design (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 testing and validation.Starting with a broad engineering background in electrical, mechanical, optics, semiconductors, or related fields, the ideal candidate would have strong systems skills, previous roles driving testing and Verification of complex consumer electronics products, experience with optical systems, sensors, software, and ability to work collaboratively with experts in different fields to verify the products work as intended.

• Lead System Validation by developing and executing comprehensive test plans for each program at every phase.
• Design and drive implementation of scalable tests for extracting product KPIs. Test plans should cover critical performance metrics in electrical design, mechanical design, reliability, software, and mobile apps.
• Understand product development process. Work closely with cross-functional teams to align test plans. Track validation progress, present data and status at design reviews.
• Participate in design review and ensure design requirements are testable and reviewing the product designs and noting likely points of failure.
• Define and set up the test and validation environment including scripts development, verification tools, and potentially working with third party vendors.
• Working with the Calibration team to ensure equipment is functioning within acceptable parameters.
• Performing risk assessments and ensuring compliance with industry standards.

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent industry experience.
• 5+ years of work experience in systems validation or systems engineering for consumer electronics products. Experience with writing test scripts and collecting test results. Prior experience with V&V, Systems Engineering and Requirements Tracking tools
• Proven understanding of overall hardware system architecture common to consumer electronics products.
• Familiarity with scripting languages for automation and data collection.
• Proven analytical and troubleshooting skills, advanced proficiency in data analysis tools and project management software.
• Proven understanding of verification methodology and development life cycle.
• Experience with System Engineering tools such as Jira, JAMA, DOORS, etc.

• Interpersonal skills and experience indirectly managing and driving various cross-functional team members (EE, SW, RF, Audio, PD, Camera etc.).
• Experience in regulated industries such as aerospace, defense, automotive or medical devices
• Experience with various sensors and data streams, including IMU, lidar, radar and cameras
