Meta Visiting Researcher, Materials Scientist, Computational Chemistry in Redmond, Washington

Summary:

At Meta’s Reality Labs Research, our goal is to make world-class consumer virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. Come work alongside industry-leading scientists and engineers to create the technology that makes VR and AR pervasive and universal. Join the adventure of a lifetime as we make science fiction real and change the world. As a Material Scientist at Meta, you will play a critical role in developing novel materials for AR/VR optics. You will focus on developing advanced materials and devices for near eye displays, and will become part of a team exploring novel concepts through modeling, design and fast iterative prototyping. We are seeking for someone who works well in a highly collaborative, cross-functional environment, who communicates complex concepts clearly and succinctly, who demonstrates scientific rigor, who is unafraid to tackle new challenges, and who works well in high-ambiguity discovery phases. If you are passionate about using your generalist-head to push the boundaries of what is possible, we want you on our team.
