Meta AR/VR Job | Research Scientist, Anthropometric Physical-Simulation (PhD)
Job（岗位）: Research Scientist, Anthropometric Physical-Simulation (PhD)
Type（岗位类型）: Research
Citys（岗位城市）: Redmond, WA
Date（发布日期）: Before 2021-12-14
Summary（岗位介绍）
Reality Labs is committed to developing technology and shipping products that are necessary to make AR/VR compelling, pervasive and universal. We are seeking innovative and self-motivated Research Scientists with experience in building physics-based simulations to advance the current state-of-the-art Industrial Design paradigm through their research contributions. An ideal candidate will be able to translate a real-world scenario into physics-based models, with required fidelity, by leveraging/advancing the current FEA/FEM techniques and validate the simulation with appropriate real-world validation system bring-up. The candidate should also be able to effectively collaborate cross-functionally to design and execute experimental tests to validate simulation models.
