Summary(岗位介绍)
At Facebook Reality Labs (FRL), our goal is to explore, innovate and design novel interfaces and hardware subsystems for the next generation of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. We are looking for a skilled and motivated Materials Scientist to join our team, whose mission is to design, build, and test prototype systems for future consumer VR and AR experiences. We are specifically looking for a candidate with experience in energy materials for energy generation (harvesting), storage (e.g. batteries or supercapacitors), or dissipation (e.g. thermal interface and barrier materials) and who can work with a team of researchers who are focused on energy systems and integration in wearable electronics. More broadly, the chosen candidate will work with a diverse and highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities.
Qualifications(岗位要求)
Holds a PhD degree in the field of Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Electrical Engineering or related area or equivalent work experience
2+ years experience with materials synthesis and applications development
2+ years experience within the domain of energy materials to include energy generation/harvesting, storage, and/or dissipation or similar areas
Interpersonal experience: cross-group and cross-culture collaboration
Must obtain work authorization in country of employment at the time of hire, and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment
Description(岗位职责)
Develop hypotheses and conduct fundamental experiments to validate or disprove those hypotheses. Contextualize findings in relation to the broader field
Identify figures of merit relevant to energetic devices, invent materials and processes that yield flexible devices that exceed the performance of existing technologies along these figures of merit
Engage with fabrication teams to build and optimize novel devices and systems for energy storage and generation
Collaborate with cross functional researchers in related domains
Additional Requirements(额外要求)
Experience with thermal electronic generators, triboelectronic generators, piezoelectric generators or hybrid energy recapture devices
Experience in transferring research concepts into prototypes, ideally ramping into productization
2+ years of experience in electronic materials, devices, and systems
Familiarity with electrical circuit design, voltammetry, thermal analysis, flexible electronic manufacture, or wearable technologies
