We build world-class AR, VR and Portal products that help to connect people worldwide and we are committed to driving this effort through relentless innovation. Our reliability engineering and failure analysis team at Facebook is focused on new technology, from materials to the product level, and actively participates in the development and design of cutting-edge technologies. Do you flourish with pushing the limits to find a solution to complex problems? If so, this would be an exciting opportunity for you to consider.As part of our failure analysis group, you are going to help craft solutions to complex problems. You'll collaborate with various teams to transform hardware components into an integrated reliable product by pushing the boundaries on what we can do in the realm of Oculus, Portal, and the broader Facebook hardware technologies. You will function as a liaison between different groups, develop an understanding in materials by correlating its properties to performance and failures, address failure mechanisms and suggest possible solutions. You will also be expected to get trained on different tools, support material durability studies, develop standard operating protocols, and coordinate the use of multiple instruments. We emphasize on a collaborative and interdisciplinary approach to solve technical issues and looking for an excellent team player. We are looking for an experienced individual who can identify and define the right characterization techniques and execute focused characterization projects to drive root-cause analysis. The right candidate is willing to get trained and support others to address needs from various projects. This position strongly partners with cross-functional teams.
