• we're just getting started. Oculus is a world leader in the design of virtual reality systems. We are currently seeking innovative research interns with a passion for technology to develop next-generation head-mounted display and imaging systems at our research location in Redmond, WA. These roles are focused on developing computational imaging methods that leverage the co-design of optical elements and image processing algorithms. In particular we welcome Masters or PhD students in computer science, optical engineering, electrical engineering, physics, or similar, and a strong background in solving inverse problems in imaging. Our internships are sixteen (16) to twenty four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year. Responsibilities * Develop next-generation head-mounted display and camera prototypes * Explore the application of computational imaging methods to virtual reality, emphasizing the development of advanced simulations, algorithms, and hardware capabilities * Collaborate with the larger Oculus Research team and provide creative leadership on computational display and imaging technologies * Publish research results in top-tier journals and at leading international conferences Minimum Qualifications * Currently has or is in the process of obtaining a PhD degree or completing a postdoctoral assignment in the field of Computer Science, Optical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field * 1+ years experience with solving inverse problems in imaging emphasizing modeling, algorithm development, and hardware prototyping * 1+ years experience with mathematical optimization, including software libraries and implementation from first principles * Demonstrated experience in optical design and modeling methods (e.g., proficiency with MATLAB, Zemax, Code V, or similar) * 1+ years experience with experimental optics and conducting laboratory work (i.e., demonstrated experience to construct proof-of-concept systems and to evaluate performance) * 2+ years experience with scientific programming languages such as Matlab, Python, Mathematica, or similar * Interpersonal experience: cross-group and cross-culture collaboration * Ability to obtain work authorization in the United States in 2018 Preferred Qualifications * Experience with C/C++, OpenGL/DirectX, and OpenCL/CUDA * Demonstrated experience via an internship, work experience, or widely used contributions to open source projects * Proven track record of achieving significant results as demonstrated by first-authored publications (e.g., SIGGRAPH/Eurographics, CVPR/ICCV/ECCV, Optics Express, etc.) Apply Facebook is proud to be an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.
