Requirements

  • Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta.
  • Experience in deep learning frameworks (such as pytorch, tensorflow), C, C++, Python.
  • Experience in robotics frameworks like ROS, along with experience working with robot simulations and hardware.
  • Experience in robotics research areas like task and motion planning, embodied AI, human-robot interaction, and sim-to-real.
  • Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment.
  • Currently has or is in the process of obtaining a PhD degree in the field of Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, a related field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta.
  • Preferred Qualifications:
  • Proven track record of achieving significant results as demonstrated by grants, fellowships, patents, as well as publications at leading workshops, journals or conferences in Machine Learning (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR), Robotics (ICRA, IROS, RSS, CoRL), and Computer Vision (CVPR, ICCV, ECCV).
  • Demonstrated research and software engineering experience via an internship, work experience, coding competitions, or widely used contributions in open source repositories (e.g. GitHub).
  • Experience with manipulating and analyzing complex, large scale, high-dimensionality data from varying sources.
  • Experience building systems based on machine learning and/or deep learning methods.
  • Experience solving complex problems and comparing alternative solutions, tradeoffs, and diverse points of view to determine a path forward.
  • Experience working and communicating cross functionally in a team environment.
  • Research experience in machine learning, computer vision, representation learning, optimization, statistics, applied mathematics, or data science.

Responsibilities

  • Perform fundamental and applied research to push the scientific and technological frontiers of embodied artificial intelligence.
  • Invent/improve novel data-driven paradigms for embodied intelligence leveraging a variety of modalities (images, video, text, audio, tactile, etc).
  • Investigate paradigms that can deliver a spectrum of embodied behaviors - from simulated characters to real robots, and from short-horizon, low-level to long-horizon, high-level intelligence.

Mission & Purpose

Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology.
