Meta is seeking a Research Engineer to join our Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) Team, a research organization focused on making significant progress in AI. Advances in AI are key to our mission, spanning some of the most pressing research challenges of our generation across such areas as artificial intelligence, machine learning, computational statistics, and applied mathematics, particularly including areas such as deep learning, generative models, reinforcement learning, computer perception, natural language processing. The ideal candidate will have a keen interest in producing new science to understand intelligence and technology to make computers more intelligent, or to work on more applied problems across the company.
Research Engineer - FAIR Core Learning Responsibilities:
Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today-beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.
