Our Mixed Reality (XR) organization in Zurich is focused on research and development of machine perception technologies from early concepts to production level across all of Facebook Reality Labs' products and surfaces including Oculus products and Family of Apps (Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp). We develop core capabilities across a range of product domains including Avatars, AR/VR remote presence / calling, AR Commerce, AR Sharing, and more. In this role, you will be researching and developing state of the art computer vision and machine learning technologies for solving challenges that bridge virtual and real worlds and can impact billions of people. You will be setting technical direction for the projects you work on and will have opportunities to collaborate with other researchers, engineers and product teams. There are lots of exciting and challenging unsolved problems in computer vision and machine learning for Facebook Reality Labs. It is early days and we're looking for you to usher in the next era of human - human and human - computer interaction by solving these problems together with us.

The AI Experiences team’s mission is experience-driven innovation. Our goal is grounding technological innovation in actual user need, and grounding ambitious user experience visions in technical feasibility. Concretely, the team focuses on path-finding UX paradigms in the field of AI focusing on the mobile and AR/MR/VR form factor. We build experiences for mobile and AR that leverage prototype algorithms and prototype hardware in order to learn which experiences add the most user value. The team works closely with technical stakeholders as well as product managers across the organization. Our team helps the organization arrive at high conviction opinions that shape our roadmaps. We get involved early on in architecture and design discussions and help make well-informed decisions.We are looking for a prototyper with demonstrated app shipping experience to end users, understanding of game engines, and ideally some experience in applied AI development, to join our team. We would...
