At Meta Reality Labs, we aim to bring together the brightest cross-disciplinary minds in one place to deliver on our mission: build tools that help people feel connected, anytime, anywhere. As a Hardware Engineer, you will take a critical role in developing hardware systems for AR and its New Technology Initiatives. You will become part of a team exploring developing concepts through prototyping and into mass-production consumer electronics. You will work as part of a cross functional team requiring collaboration and curiosity in domains other than electrical engineering. Our ideal candidate has strong electrical engineering fundamentals, HW & FW debugging skills, and communication skills. This role is field personnel.

Hardware Engineer Responsibilities:

• Perform AR products bring up, debug, troubleshooting from factory and APAC engineering lab.
• On-site support manufacturing (SMT and FATP) build. Failure mode analysis, root cause diagnosis, and system-level problem solving across the various project phases.
• Describe complex features and/or systems in detail and are able to communicate technical information effectively with global teams.
• Work with internal cross functional teams to establish HW and SW system integration and design analysis.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor or above degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent field with proven experience of EE fundamentals.
• 8+ years of electrical design or testing experience.
• Script/code (python/C/C++/C#/etc.) to support HW failure analysis and data collection.
• Experience in using Cadence OrCAD, Altium or equivalent.
• Experience with use of oscilloscopes/high speed digital test equipment/logic analyzers, or function generators.
• Effective communication, collaboration and partnership with colleagues, cross-functional partners in dynamic and evolving development environments.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with embedded Linux, Kernel, Yocto, Buildroot, etc.
• Experience integrating novel algorithms into either an RTOS-based or bare metal system.
• Experience with design and programming in python, C or C++ for development, debugging, testing and performance analysis
• Experience with FW/SW troubleshooting
• Experience with electrical and ESD risks and mitigation techniques.
• Experience with analog/mixed signal IC design, fabrication, and validation process.
• Experience with Android system, be able to capture SOC/MCU log, reading code and cowork with SW team for failure analysis.
