Description
Meta is seeking a Research Scientist Manager with expertise in product-focused signal processing and sensor development to help us create novel wearable devices and algorithms that will become one of the main pillars for interaction with the virtual and augmented world. Help us unleash human potential by removing the bottlenecks between user intent and action. Our team uses machine learning and statistical signal processing tools to advance our pioneering work building a practical, non-invasive wearable device that draws on rich neuromotor signals. We are a multi-disciplinary group of researchers and engineers who work closely with partner hardware, algorithms, and user experience teams to model and understand real-world use cases, set requirements for hardware performance, and develop software strategies to improve signal quality and product performance.
Research Scientist Manager, Neuromotor Interfaces (EMG Signal Validation) Responsibilities
  • Manage a team of research scientists and software engineers, providing career guidance, regular feedback and tracking performance.
  • Plan and direct cutting-edge applied research to define sensor performance requirements as well as characterize the dependencies between sensors and overall system performance.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, algorithms, and user experience research teams to develop performant wearable devices with integrated biosensors.
  • Use quantitative research methods to define, iterate upon, and advance key areas of our research agenda.
Minimum Qualifications
  • PhD in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, physics, materials science, applied math, statistics, signal processing, control theory, or a related technical field
