If you’re a developer with a passion for educating and supporting teams in creating successful end‑to‑end experiences, and have professional experience with technical users of 3D engines such as Unity and Unreal, and Native App development we’d love to hear from you.
What you’ll do:
Design, implement, and support reusable components and bridging frameworks that connect native libraries in C++.
Produce documentation, code samples, and learning resources for external developers.
Manage technical inquiries from Lens Studio developers and partners.
Collaborate cross‑functionally to identify and close developer experience gaps.
Contribute to the testing, validation, and optimization native libraries.
Advise on best practices for building performant, reusable, and portable C++ libraries.

Experience with spatial computing concepts, AR/VR/MR development, and integration of native modules into cross‑platform engines.
Ability to create documentation, technical tutorials, and other learning resources targeted at developers.
Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to both internal engineers and external partners.
Minimum Qualifications:
3+ years of experience in AR engineering or native module development after earning a Bachelor’s degree in computer science or a related field; or a Master’s degree in a technical field with 2 years of post‑graduate AR engineering experience; or a PhD in a relevant technical field.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience building and maintaining C++ native libraries, and developing cross‑language integration bridges (JSI, node addons, JNI, FFI, or similar).
Experience in building highly interactive spatial or 3D applications (apps, games, or AR/VR content) using 3D engines such as Unity, Unreal, Three.js, OpenFrameworks, or WebGL/OpenGL.
Experience integrating external native libraries with JavaScript/TypeScript‑based application stacks.
Experience producing developer learning assets, presentations, or technical documentation.
Strong public speaking and partner‑facing communication skills.
