**Summary:** At Reality Labs Research (RL-R), 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 driving research towards a vision of an always-on augmented reality device that can enable high-quality contextually relevant interactions across a range of complex, real-world tasks in unconstrained environments; to achieve this goal, our team draws on and fundamentally advances methods and knowledge from artificial intelligence, multimodal machine learning, computer vision, and signal processing. More broadly, you will work with a broad and highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities. **Required Skills:** Research Scientist, Multimodal Agents (PhD) Responsibilities: 1. Define, collaborate, and execute on research that pushes forward the state of the art in multimodal agent frameworks and context understanding 2. Work collaboratively with other research scientists to develop novel solutions and models in service of contextualized AI for wearables and augmented reality 3. Collaborating and executing experimental design, implementation, evaluation, and reporting results to enable new capabilities for multimodal machine learning models 4. Work on curation of large datasets across multiple modalities (e.g., vision, audio, eye gaze, IMU, sEMG) **Minimum Qualifications:** Minimum Qualifications: 5. Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta 6. Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a PhD degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, or related technical fields 7. Publication record in machine learning, AI, computer science, statistics, applied mathematics, data science, or related technical fields 8. Experience in one or more of the following areas: Agent Frameworks, LLM training, NLP, Multimodal, Computer Vision 9. Experience developing end-to-end ML pipelines with a focus on dataset preprocessing, model development and evaluation, software integration, and real-time deployment 10.
