Software Engineer - Camera Systems

Reality Labs at Meta is building products that make it easier for people to connect with the ones they love most, enjoy top-notch, wire-free VR, and push the future of computing platforms.

We are a team of world-class experts developing and shipping products at the intersection of hardware, software and content.XR Input org within Reality Labs aims to deliver the input technologies that will enable general purpose computing in AR/VR.

As a Camera Engineer on XR Input, you can help build custom and innovative hardware and software infrastructure necessary to support product and research data acquisition for Input use-cases like Hand Tracking, Body Tracking, Direct Touch, Surface Typing, etc which can radically redefine the way people work, play and connect.

What we build today could one day be the norm.

So to be here today is to truly be at the heart of change and the frontier of what's to come.

We're the people helping to define the metaverse.

We may not have all the answers.

But together, we're getting closer.
