Reality Labs focuses on delivering Meta's vision through On-device AI. The compute performance and power efficiency requirements of these workloads require custom silicon. Reality Labs Silicon team is driving the state of the art forward with breakthrough work in computer vision, machine learning, mixed reality, displays, sensors, and new ways to map the human body. Our chips will enable On-device AI assistance and features, where our real and virtual world will mix and match throughout the day. We believe the only way to achieve our goals is to look at the entire stack, from transistors to architecture, firmware, and algorithms.We are seeking talented professionals to support the development and optimization of machine learning workloads and performance modeling for custom hardware and software platforms. In this role, you will contribute to analytical and simulation-based modeling and analysis, collaborating with cross-functional teams to build scalable and efficient solutions. Ideal candidates have a strong background in machine learning, system architecture, and performance modeling, and thrive in collaborative, hands-on environments.
