Meta Reality Labs brings together a world-class team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create the future of virtual and augmented reality, which together will become as universal and essential as smartphones and personal computers are today. And just as personal computers have done over the past 45 years, AR and VR will ultimately change everything about how we work, play, and connect. We are developing all the technologies needed to enable breakthrough AR glasses and VR headsets, including optics and displays, computer vision, audio, graphics, brain-computer interface, haptic interaction, eye/hand/face/body tracking, perception science, and true telepresence. Some of those will advance much faster than others, but they all need to happen to enable AR and VR that are so compelling that they become an integral part of our lives. Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.

  • Collaborate with researchers and cross-functional partners including communicating research plans, progress, and results
  • Publish research results and contribute to research that can be applied to Meta product development
  • Develop next generation AR/VR displays with an emphasis on advanced simulations and prototyping to prove new concepts and understand the perceptual impact of those concepts
  • Collaborate with the larger Meta Reality Labs Product team to explore novel solution space for AR/VR devices
  • Explore the application of at least one of the following: wave optics, polarization optics, geometrical optics
  • Explore the application of at least one of the following: illumination, stray light/ghost analysis of optical system, geometrical optics design
  • This position will have an emphasis on advanced simulations and prototyping to prove new concepts and the perceptual impact of those concepts
  • Currently has or is in the process of obtaining a Ph.D. degree in Optical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, or relevant technical field
  • 2+ years experience in at least one of the following areas of optical research: optical design, photonic integrated circuits, holography, diffractive optics, computational electromagnetics/photonics
  • 2+ years hands on experience with one of the following optical simulation tools: Zemax, CodeV, FRED, LightTools, or similar
  • Familiarity with Python, Matlab or equivalent programming languages
  • Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment
  • Intent to return to the degree program after the completion of the internship/co-op
