Materials Regulatory Compliance (MRC) Intern
About The Position
Materials Regulatory Compliance owns chemical compliance for Reality Labs hardware — wearables, headsets, accessories and packaging. We determine which substance restrictions, disclosure/reporting duties, and marking obligations apply in every market we ship to, and hold the evidence that proves it: supplier declarations, lab reports, waivers, and regulatory filings. This is an evidence-heavy, transactional role focused on structuring data, maintaining records, and surfacing gaps for analyst/SME review. What you'll get out of it Hands-on understanding of how global chemical regulation lands on a shipping consumer product — from statute, through supplier data and lab testing, to a mark on a box — working across analysts, packaging engineering, legal, and external labs.

- Clear written communication, including accurate technical summaries with source citations

- Familiarity with PLM systems, BOMs, or engineering change processes
- Exposure to analytical chemistry methods and outputs (e.g., ICP-OES, GC-MS, ion chromatography)
Responsibilities
- Log supplier declarations/certificates of compliance; check completeness and flag gaps for review
- Maintain program, regulation, and waiver trackers — expiries, open actions, ownership, duplicates
