Summary:

As an Optical System Engineer at Meta's Reality Labs, you will play a crucial role in developing and productizing display modules or systems that drive transformative experiences in AR products. Your primary responsibility will be to evaluate and improve display system performance, driving testing strategies at factories, and iterating the display specification throughout the engineering and mass production phases to meet customer experience expectations.

You will collaborate with Process, Product Design, Electrical Engineering, System Architecture, and Display Component teams on technology transfer. Additionally, you will manage partnerships with other Technology Leaders, TPMs, GSMs, and Operations Teams to build the necessary infrastructure aligned with program goals, schedule, and go-to-market strategy.

You will join an agile team focused on developing winning prototypes, establishing new process capabilities with supply-chain partners, and releasing display systems/products that are fully hardened for high-volume manufacturing (HVM).

Key Responsibilities:
  1. Lead technical engagement at suppliers to evaluate and develop complete solutions for display system manufacturing, including integration, calibration, test, and data management.
  2. Own the health of the interface between different engineering functions (OMET, Tech Ops, Reliability Engineering, and Process Engineering functions).
  3. Collaborate with Sourcing and Operations to define and establish engagement models and implement mass production solutions aligned with product strategy.
  4. Identify risks, track, and resolve issues through various phases of production. Engage with peer and support teams to transfer and deliver solutions in a seamless and organized fashion.
  5. Problem-solve to address multi-part problems with high levels of uncertainty across multiple groups and companies.
  6. Willingness and ability to travel 20% time internationally.
Minimum Qualifications:
  • BS or MS degree in Physics, Optical Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field or equivalent experience.
  • Experience in optical manufacturing, displays components, and/or camera assembly.
  • Experience in bringing up first-generation technologies into device form factors.
  • Experience with optical design, optical manufacturing, tolerancing, and quality control.
  • Demonstrated skills with designed experiments and related statistical data analysis to drive process capability for chemical and mechanical processes.
  • Experience leading specification activity with cross-functional teams for end-to-end process.
  • Experience performing and designing DOE, data analysis, SPC control, yield improvement, root cause investigation, FACA, and quality control.
  • Experience with in-line and off-line Quality Control processes.
  • Experience in testing and metrology.
  • Experience in working with display vendors, ODMs, and CMs, as well as JDM development.
  • Project management skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • PhD in Optical Sciences, Manufacturing, or Industrial Engineering.
  • Optical simulation (Zemax, Fred, or Light Tool).
Compensation:

$170,000/year to $240,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits
