• SoC Physical Design Engineer

    Meta (Sunnyvale, CA)


    Summary:

    Meta's Reality Labs(RL) focuses on delivering Meta's vision through Augmented Reality (AR). Compute power requirements of Augmented Reality require custom silicon. Meta RL Silicon team is driving the state of the art forward with breakthrough work in computer vision, machine learning, mixed reality, graphics, displays, sensors, and new ways to map the human body. Our chips will enable AR devices where our real and virtual world will mix and match throughout the day. We believe the only way to achieve our goals is to look at the entire stack, from transistor, through architecture, to firmware, and algorithms.As an SoC Physical Design Engineer at Meta Reality Labs, you will perform physical design implementation of complex SoC and IP-subsystems. In this high impact role, you will work closely with cross functional teams to ensure our custom silicon developments meet the challenging power, performance and area requirements needed for our wearable products.
