Meta's Reality Labs is working to bring people together through advanced Augmented and Virtual reality products. With a focus on research and development in areas like computer vision, machine learning, and haptics, RL is committed to driving innovation forward. The potential for AR/VR to change the way we interact with each other is immense. By developing new hardware and software products that can understand human appearance, movement, and expression, we aim to make it possible for people to feel like they are directly in front of each other, even if they are separated by vast distances.Our goal is to enable a metaverse where people can share virtual experiences that interact seamlessly with the real world. To achieve this, our XR Codec Interactions and Avatars organization is focused on developing technologies that enhance social presence and interaction through Codec Avatars and other advanced XR technologies. Your job will involve projects ranging from research to product development. You will contribute to incubating the world's largest human ground truth datasets to empower the social presence and interaction technology. To be successful in this role, you should have a basic understanding of the relevant technologies, be proactive to learn through the process and grow with the team.
