Applied AI Research Scientist - Multimodal AI

Redmond, WA

At Reality Labs Research (RLR), our goal is to explore, innovate and design novel interfaces and hardware subsystems for the next generation of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. We are driving research towards a vision of an always-on augmented reality device that can enable high-quality contextually relevant interactions across a range of complex, dynamic, real-world tasks in natural environments; to achieve this goal, our team draws on and fundamentally advances methods and knowledge from artificial intelligence, multimodal machine learning, computer vision, and signal processing. More broadly, you will work with a diverse and highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities.
