FRL Software Engineer - Interactions Facebook
Redmond, WA

Job Description

Come invent the future. At Facebook Reality Labs, software development is vital to turbocharging our scientific explorations and generating viable paths to the consumer products people will use for decades to come - products that will literally give people super powers. If you're a C/C++ software engineering expert with deep knowledge of real-time systems, a love for solving novel problems from first principles, and an aptitude for optimization, you'll thrive in our collaborative environment. Join a world-class team of pioneers experimenting with breakthrough interaction technology, including a wide range of haptic input devices. Partner with expert research scientists, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers and other brilliant software minds to build cutting-edge prototypes and create the technology that makes AR/VR universal. Our vision is to revolutionize how people interact, which includes novel haptics devices as well as hands free interactions and other non-encumbering modes, optimizing information display and situational awareness. We're just getting started. You can help us make this dream a reality.
