Software Engineer - Research Infrastructure

Meta is seeking a Software Engineer to join their Research Infrastructure team, focusing on the development of cutting-edge infrastructure for AR/VR and AI research projects. This role sits at the intersection of machine learning infrastructure and research support, where you'll collaborate with researchers and engineers to design and build components that enable model deployment, data collection from research studies, and scaling infrastructure impact.

The position offers an opportunity to work with Meta's Facebook Reality Labs and Oculus teams, contributing to the next evolution of social technology beyond traditional 2D screens. You'll be responsible for developing efficient backend systems, creating data pipelines, and building tools that enhance research capabilities.

The ideal candidate will bring strong software development experience, particularly in ML infrastructure and data pipeline development. You'll work in an environment that values collaboration, innovation, and the ability to bridge the gap between research requirements and production-ready systems.

This role offers competitive compensation ranging from $56.25/hour to $173,000/year, plus bonus, equity, and benefits. You'll be part of Meta's mission to move beyond the constraints of screens and physical distance, helping to shape the future of digital connection through immersive technologies.

Working at Meta's locations in either Redmond, WA or Burlingame, CA, you'll join a team that's pushing the boundaries of what's possible in AR/VR and AI research infrastructure. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to impact the future of human connection and computing while working with cutting-edge technologies and brilliant researchers.
