Summary:

At Reality Labs we aim to bring together cross-disciplinary minds in one place to deliver on our mission: build tools that help people feel connected, anytime, anywhere. As a Product Design Engineer, you will take a critical role in developing hardware systems for VR, AR, or New Technology Initiatives. You will become part of a team exploring developing concepts through prototyping and into mass-production consumer electronics. You will work as part of a cross functional team requiring collaboration in domains other than mechanical engineering. Our teams support mechanical engineering fundamentals, prototyping skills, CAD fluency, manufacturing process knowledge, and experience designing consumer electronics.

Required Skills:

Opto-Mechanical Design Engineer Responsibilities:

1. Contribute to mechanical solutions as part of a highly cross-functional team

2. Model, build, test, and refine prototypes and characterization test systems

3. Work across the full product development cycle, from concept inception to shipping product

4. Collaborate and manage work with Asia-based Supply Chain

5. Push state-of-the-art technologies and approaches to solving complex mechanical problems while working with cross functional technical teams

6. Travel to external vendors up to 20%
