Reality Labs Research (RL-R) brings together a world-class R&D team of researchers, developers, and engineers with the shared goal of developing XR and AI across the spectrum. The Surreal research group at RL-R is seeking exceptional engineers to solve the next generation of research challenges on the path to building future machine perception enabled technologies. We are looking for talented engineers to architect and build the next-generation research device of Project Aria. We are building this research device to understand the world from a human\'s perspective and lay the foundation for Contextual AI experiences on future AI & AR glasses. In this role you will design, analyze, and optimize the performance of Contextual AI algorithms on the next-generation Aria prototype. You will focus initially on low-power on-device custom compute implementations, and then extend the optimization to the phone and cloud-based processing chains. Responsibilities
