Optical Systems Engineer
At Meta Reality Labs, we are developing the future of Wearables and Mixed Reality products. This team focuses on developing display and optics technologies for Meta products, creating see-through display systems that seamlessly blend the real and virtual realms. The role involves designing architecture and display sub-systems for wearable devices, developing and implementing test, characterization, metrology, and data solutions to support transparent display systems. We're seeking an experienced Engineer focused on Optical Engineering to join our Reality Labs team, where you'll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of these systems. As a key member of our team, you'll explore innovative architectures and design spaces for wearable systems, develop and analyze system components, and drive detailed system-level analysis. Optical Systems Engineer Responsibilities
Explore architectures and design spaces for optical systems through design and prototyping using novel and conventional techniques and components Develop and analyze system and subsystem components that are specified to meet the needs of advanced AR products Perform detailed system level analysis (i.e. optical modeling, tolerancing, and estimating size, weight, power to predict system performance etc.) Contribute to the process of design releases, prototyping and creation of related documentation Collaborate with internal teams for adoption of mature technologies Minimum Qualifications
Bachelors or Masters degree in the field of Optics, Optical Sciences, Optical Engineering, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Sciences or a similar field, and/or equivalent work experience 2+ years of experience in applied research and/or product development 2+ years of experience with optical systems or similar Experience maturing optical systems from proof-of-concept to early low volume prototype or production Experience in scripting and/or system optimization and analysis tools Knowledge of optical design, modeling methods, and tools for imaging and illumination systems as well as tolerance analysis Experience working, communicating, and collaborating in a cross-functional environment Preferred Qualifications
PhD in the field of Optical Engineering, Physics, Electrical Engineering or related degree 4+ years of experience in research or advanced optics development Experience with multiple full life cycle product launches Experience with 3D tracking methods, algorithms, devices and systems Experience with design/manufacturing of small form-factor sensing or imaging systems Process development experience for optical parts, sensors, computer vision, software and hardware integration Experience developing manufacturing process(es) for coatings, molding, replication, diamond-turning Rapid prototyping experience (i.e. 3D printing, laser cutting, etc.) Experience in opto-mechanical integration and system design Experience in optical lens characterization and metrology for optics, cosmetics, and mechanical properties Experience in sequential ray tracing, optical simulation and tolerancing using ZEMAX, Code V, FRED ect Experience with compliances and product regulatory processes for ophthalmics, such as FDA, ANSI or ISO
