About Meta:
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.
Sensor Test Engineer Responsibilities:
- Support imaging sensor characterization/validation engineers in the provision of high-quality optical test infrastructure. Work with the team to identify ways to improve existing capabilities and add new ones.
- Develop new imaging sensor test methodologies to evaluate sensor performance based on MR/AR/SG and other wearable applications
- Generate intellectual property in novel optical instrumentation for new emerging sensor technologies
- Responsible for developing standard operating procedure for new developed optical test stations, and responsible for training sensor characterization engineers
- Contribute to develop automation test scripts using Python, MATLAB or C/C++ for new optical test stations
- Work as part of the team to perform characterization tests for image sensor/ ALS sensor at both component and device level
- Collect and perform statistical analysis on test data to correlate to performance metrics
- Explore novel optical metrology technologies and work with suppliers on prototype development
- Simulate and directly measure image sensor performance to understand the effect on the 2D and 3D sensing systems applied in MR/AR applications
- Responsible for testing debugging, root cause analysis, and problem solving
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelors in Optics, Physics, or a related discipline or equivalent experience
- 4+ years experience in developing optical bench-top test stations in the fields of spectroscopy and microscopy for testing electro-optic effects of new materials
- Knowledge of imaging optics, optical metrology and characterization
- Experience taking requirements and coming up with novel methods for optical instrumentation, measurement techniques and algorithms
- Experience in optical metrology development from concept to system validation
- Experience with imaging sensor characterization hardware and software
- Knowledge of geometrical and physical optics
- Programming, simulation and modeling experience with coding languages, example: C/C++, Python, or MATLAB
Preferred Qualifications:
- Masters/PhD in Optics, Physics, or a related discipline
- Experience in sub-micro pixel image sensor MTF measurement development and ambient light sensor characterization and validation
- Experience in test automation (instrument control and data collection) using MATLAB or Python.
- Experience scripting and prototyping image analysis algorithms in MATLAB or Python.
