Job Description:

Reality Labs Research (RL-R) brings together a highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers to create the future of augmented/virtual reality and wearable personal AI devices. The Sensors and Systems Research (SSR) team’s goal is to create ultra low power and lightweight photon-to-inference pipelines that enable all-day, always-on contextual AI. The team cultivates an open environment where individuals thrive. We encourage a sense of ownership and embrace the ambiguity that comes with working on the frontiers of research. The SSR team is looking for an Image Sensor Engineer who has comprehensive experience with developing image sensors and supporting module/system integration. You'll closely partner with research scientists to validate the developed image sensors in camera prototypes and demonstrate new user experiences we aim to enable. You’ll also act as the bridge between research and product teams to ensure the novel imaging technology we develop can be smoothly integrated into the camera subsystems of Meta’s future wearable AR/VR/AI products.

Job Responsibility:

  • Propose specification/functional requirements for customized image sensors and align with stakeholders inside SSR and cross-functional teams
  • Manage the engagement with vendors on customized image sensor development including design, bench-level characterization, ATE-level testing, etc
  • Support internal teams to integrate off-the-shelf image sensors or customized image sensors into camera modules and prototyping systems
  • Implement solutions or engage vendor to provide solutions for the needed sensor configurations to meet system-level requirements

Requirements:

  • Master’s degree in the field of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field
  • 5+ years of experience in image sensor design including readout circuits, pixel driving circuits, controlling circuits, I2C/I3C interfaces and MIPI C/D-PHY in advanced CMOS image sensor process nodes
  • Shipped 1 or more image sensor products in mass production for cellphones or wearable devices
  • Experience with PCB design
  • Experience with image sensor characterization
  • Experience with image sensor ATE-level testing
  • Familiar with pixel operating principles for both rolling-shutter and global-shutter image sensors
  • Familiar with state-of-the-art 3D stacking process for image sensors fabrication
  • Familiar with image signal processor (ISP) functions
