Software Engineer - Computer Graphics (Technical Leadership)

The Reality Labs team at Meta is helping people around the world come together and connect through proven track record of delivering high-quality Augmented and Virtual Reality hardware and software solutions. We are developing the future of Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, bringing products to consumers that transform entertainment and social experiences. The potential of AR and VR to connect the world is immense—and we’re just getting started. With global departments dedicated to AR/VR research, computer vision, haptics, social interaction, and more, AR/VR is committed to driving the state-of-the-art forward through innovation. Our teams explore, develop, and deliver new cutting-edge technologies that serve as the foundation of current and future AR/VR products. Extended Reality Technology or XRTech's mission is to enable developers to accelerate the transition from research and innovative technologies to rich user experiences deployed in production by providing remote execution, runtimes, and tools across all platforms. With photorealistic Codec Avatars, we are building the next communication medium. So that you can stay close and present with your loved ones, despite distance. At Extended Reality Codec Interactions and Avatars or XRCIA, we focus on tech transferring Codec Avatar R&D in order to enable the next Meta Mixed Reality/Augmented Reality products. We’re building a future where people are choosing lightweight, long-lasting, independently capable Meta devices that shape the way people communicate, are entertained and assisted in their daily lives. At XRCIA Platform, we focus on delivering the production & iteration platforms for Codec Avatars across all development stages, with parallel and connected efforts: - Explore platform enables rapid exploration of 2d and 3d experiences and down selection of Codec Avatar technologies following device constraints - Validate platform develops a reference implementation to gain confidence and validate through user testing at scale - Ship platform provides system-level integration powering the Codec Avatar experiences that will ship to end users, including SDK components integrated into existing platforms, runtime infrastructure powering the algorithms and codec avatar machine perception capabilities, and a unified capture system powering avatar generation integrated into Meta’s mobile apps. The role will focus on the Explore+Validate platforms and bridge to the Ship platform.
