Job description

Job Description:
Must Have:

• Experience working with mixed signal circuit design, specifically power supply, signal conditioning, and clock synchronization with analog and digital circuit design, validation, and debug.
• Reality Labs (RL) Sensors Team at client is helping build novel products in Augmented and Virtual Reality.
• Client team explores, develops, and delivers new cutting-edge technologies that serve as the foundation of current and future AR/VR products at client.
• Client is looking for candidates with experience in firmware development and hardware bring-up to assist with the development of novel hardware and software systems within the RL Sensors Team, while collaborating with experts across multiple domains.

Responsibilities:

• Develop firmware and hardware systems that enable the integration of high-performance Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) sensors into AR/VR systems and wearables.
• Work with the team to help design, setup, and run practical experiments on motion sensors such as IMUs, magnetometers, pressure sensors, and ultrasonic transducers.
• Collaborate with internal and external research, design, and engineering teams to develop Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms for sensor systems that advance the state-of-the-art.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Currently has bachelors degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related engineering discipline.
• Experience working with mixed signal circuit design, specifically power supply, signal conditioning, and clock synchronization with analog and digital circuit design, validation, and debug
• 3 plus years developing firmware for ARM-based processors using languages such as C and C++.
• Hands-on experience developing drivers for and debugging common communication protocols such as I2C, I3C, SPI, USB, Ethernet, and WiFi.
• Proficiency in using benchtop equipment such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and signal generators.
• Demonstrated interpersonal experience in cross-group and cross-culture collaboration.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Demonstrated experience with scripting environments such as Python and/or Matlab.
• Experience with FPGA design and RTL development using Verilog or VHDL.
• Experience in design, integration, and/or validation of Microelectromechanical Systems
• (MEMS) sensors and actuators.
• Familiarity with kernel-level development in a Linux-based OS such as Android, and/or
• embedded development on RTOS platforms such as Zephyr.
• Familiarity with the emerging Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality technologies.

Top 3 must-have HARD skills:    

• High-performance Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)
• 3 plus years developing firmware for ARM-based processors using languages such as C and C++.

Good to have skills:

• Hands-on experience developing drivers for and debugging common communication protocols such as I2C, I3C, SPI, USB, Ethernet, and WiFi.
