Summary:

Reality Labs Research (RL-R) brings together a world-class R&D team of researchers, developers, and engineers with the shared goal of developing AR and VR across the spectrum. The Surreal research group at RL-R is solving the next generation of research challenges on the path to building future machine perception enabled technologies. We are building this research device to understand the world from a human's perspective and lay the foundation for Contextual AI experiences on future AR glasses.The technology that is being developed within the Surreal team at RL is a new generation of end-to-end real-time 3D scene understanding systems working across novel mobile sensor design, sensor fusion, state estimation, computer vision, large-scale reconstruction and localization, as well as large-scale online inference and optimization. The Surreal team is seeking an experienced engineering manager to lead and support a group of world-class researchers and engineers in order to support this initiative.
