About the role

Meta Reality Labs' Advanced Photonics group is seeking an Optical Scientist to push nano-photonics research toward wearable AR systems, designing, building and validating immersive display, sensing, and optical-compute components. You will collaborate with scientists and engineers across computation, optics, chemistry, materials science and fabrication to develop metastructures, photonic integrated circuits, and holographic elements, while expanding simulation and optimization workflows for

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
