Requirements
- Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a PhD in optics, electrical engineering, vision science, computational imaging, biomedical engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta.
- Experience with spectro-radiometric and/or photometric measurement for calibrating sensor (e.g. camera, ambient light sensor) and display systems
- Experience working on the evaluation and engineering of display electronics and controllers
- Experience with Python, MATLAB, or similar programming languages
- Must obtain work authorization in country of employment at the time of hire, and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment
Responsibilities
- Develop and execute sensor-to-display calibration processes (e.g. camera or ambient light sensor spatial and dynamic range characterization and correction, display color space, timing control etc) for augmented reality prototypes and products
- Work closely with research scientists to define precise requirements and refine systems and ensure with data that perceptual targets are achieved
- Work with cross-functional partners in research and product development to ensure calibration processes can transfer to production at scale (i.e. takt time optimization)
Preferred Qualifications
- Knowledge of standard image quality metrics, and deriving new metrics for novel environments and/or display architectures
- Knowledge of the complete image processing pipeline, from capture through reproduction through professional experience, publications and/or academic training
- Industry experience conducting research investigating issues with displays and/or sensors that user experience with automatic display control
- 3+ years of experience in optics, computational imaging, biomedical engineering, or a related field with an emphasis on control systems and calibration.
- Experience working and communicating cross-functionally in a team environment.
- Proven track record of achieving significant results as demonstrated by grants, fellowships, patents, as well as first-authored publications at leading workshops or conferences
