Computer Vision Engineer

Meta Reality Labs is seeking a Machine Learning Engineer to drive the productization of gesture recognition models for our AR/VR devices. This role bridges research and production—you'll take ML models from development through deployment, collaborating across teams to ship gesture-based interactions on Quest and Meta Glasses. This is not a pure research position; we're looking for someone who thrives at turning cutting-edge ML into real products that reach millions of users.

Own end-to-end development of gesture recognition ML models from prototyping to production deployment on AR/VR devices Collaborate with cross-functional teams including research, hardware, product, and platform engineering to integrate models into shipping products Optimize ML models for on-device performance, balancing accuracy, latency, and power constraints Partner with Reality Labs Research (RL-R) to translate research breakthroughs into production-ready solutions Define technical direction and mentor engineers on ML productization best practices
