At Reality Labs, our team brings novel experiences to life on Meta’s AR devices. We are seeking upcoming scientists and researchers with great interest in real-time embedded software development and hardware acceleration to enable on-device contextual AI within the performance, power and form-factor constraints of AR glasses. Within the vast domain of contextual AI, we are currently focusing on three key areas: computer vision, audio interaction, and large language models. As a Research Scientist intern, you will help us advance the state-of-the-art in one or more of these areas. Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.
