  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Machine Learning, or equivalent practical experience
  • Experience shipping ML models to production
  • Background in computer vision or machine learning, with focus on areas such as gesture recognition, pose estimation, or object tracking
  • Experience with model optimization for edge/on-device deployment
  • Track record of cross-functional collaboration to deliver ML-powered features

Nice To Haves

  • Experience deploying ML models on edge devices
  • Experience with gesture recognition, hand tracking, or human pose estimation
  • Background in real-time inference, model compression, or quantization techniques
  • 5+ years of industry experience in machine learning or computer vision
  • MS or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, or related field
  • Publication track record at conferences such as CVPR, NeurIPS, ECCV, ICCV, ICML

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end development of gesture recognition ML models from prototyping to production deployment on AR/VR devices
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including research, hardware, product, and platform engineering to integrate models into shipping products
  • Optimize ML models for on-device performance, balancing accuracy, latency, and power constraints
  • Partner with Reality Labs Research (RL-R) to translate research breakthroughs into production-ready solutions
  • Define technical direction and mentor engineers on ML productization best practices
