We bring together cross-disciplinary minds to invent, prototype, and deliver products and platforms that connect billions of people worldwide. As an Engineer at Meta, you will play a pivotal role in the specification, design, prototyping, and deployment of cutting-edge hardware systems. You will collaborate with world-class teams across engineering disciplines—including electrical, optical, firmware, software, and industrial design—to deliver innovative solutions for wearable devices, robotics, infrastructure, and research initiatives. Your work could span the full product lifecycle, from concept inception and feasibility studies to mass production and deployment.

Job Responsibility:

  • Mechanical Design: Independently manage and deliver medium-complexity mechanical assemblies or subsystems, driving technical solutions from concept to production
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with internal and external partners, including supply chain, manufacturing, and cross-disciplinary engineering teams
  • Prototyping & Testing: Model, build, test, and refine prototypes and characterization test systems
  • conduct feasibility studies and failure analysis
  • Product Development Cycle: Drive projects from early concept through prototyping, validation, and mass production, supporting manufacturing partners worldwide
  • Technical Leadership: Provide technical direction, mentor junior engineers, and influence program strategy and execution
  • Innovation: Push state-of-the-art technologies and approaches to solve complex mechanical problems in consumer electronics, robotics, infrastructure, and research
  • Documentation & Communication: Generate and manage technical documentation, specifications, and clear communication across teams and stakeholders
  • Travel: Support manufacturing and development activities with travel to external vendors and partners as needed

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field (or equivalent industry experience)
  • 6+ years of industry experience in mechanical design, including shipping high-volume commercial products or complex electromechanical assemblies
  • Proficiency in 3D/2D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, NX, Creo)
  • Experience in Design for Manufacturability (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), statistical tolerance analysis, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T)
  • Working knowledge of material properties (plastics, metals, adhesives, glass, PCBA, flex circuits, etc.)
  • Experience with high-volume manufacturing techniques (stamping, machining, injection molding, die casting, etc.)
  • Testing and analysis experience (FEA, Simulation, Design of Experiments, etc.)

Nice to have:

  • Experience with design and prototyping of head-mounted optical systems and/or bench-top optical setups
  • Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Optical Engineering or related field (or equivalent industry experience)
  • 3+ years of specific industry experience in Opto-mechanical design, including shipping high-volume commercial products or complex opto-mechanical assemblies
  • Experience in Camera Module design and managing/delivering camera module structure and packaging from concept to production
  • Experience in designing miniaturized camera modules in wearable devices
  • Familiar with Active Alignment (AA) process for camera module assembly
  • Proficiency in using NX software for creating 2D and 3D MCOs
  • Basic structural and thermal Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
  • Familiarity with optical simulation and ray tracing software (e.g., Zemax, Code V, LightTools) is a definite plus
