Summary:
At Reality Labs we aim to bring together the brightest cross-disciplinary minds in one place to deliver on our mission: build tools that help people feel connected, anytime, anywhere. The Devices Sustainability Team is responsible for gathering data to understand our carbon impact, defining leading-edge criteria, and influencing product design to reduce carbon emissions in alignment with Meta’s 2030 Net Zero Commitment. As a Product Design Engineer focused on leading Devices sustainability efforts, you will take a critical role in influencing system design of VR, AR, and New Technology Initiatives to drive carbon reduction. You will influence teams exploring developing concepts through prototyping and into mass-production consumer electronics. You will work as part of a cross functional team requiring collaboration and curiosity in domains other than mechanical engineering. Our ideal candidate has strong mechanical engineering fundamentals, sustainability Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) experience, CAD fluency, manufacturing process knowledge, and experience designing consumer electronics.
