Summary（岗位介绍）
The Reality Labs Research Hardware Team is looking for a Firmware Engineering Manager to join our team, whose mission is to bring cutting-edge virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences to life. We are specifically looking for a candidate with a broad background, including deep embedded-system knowledge, a passion for working on new hardware, and strong leadership skills. You are comfortable working with a wide variety of hardware devices and working with a team that rapidly delivers reliable, high-performance firmware. To make this possible, we need a leader to foster a well-rounded team that nurtures kinship, enables good communication, and is sympathetic to the challenges in these diverse domains.
In this role, you will lead a team of engineers and collaborate with researchers to concept, design, and build the next generation of research hardware systems that enable social VR and AR. You will collaborate and contribute at a deeply technical level and guide team members, including vendors and manufacturing partners. You will be responsible for intaking requirements from researchers and engineers, defining optimized workflows, identifying risks and associated mitigation plans, and communicating clearly to program stakeholders. You will help define firmware design that includes mobile and tethered solutions, real time sensor data acquisition, including IMUs and cameras, real time audio processing, wireless communications, embedded MCUs, custom and OTS System On Chip (SoC), and FPGAs.
We are looking for someone comfortable with ambiguity, exhibits a sense of ownership, and enjoys an open and considerate environment. We have a wide variety of problems that need solutions, and we depend on people who are comfortable embracing a creative, thoughtful approach to both short-term and long-term problem-solving.
