Meta Reality Labs Research (RL Research) brings together a world-class R&D team of researchers, developers, and engineers with the shared goal of developing AI and AR/VR technology across the spectrum. The Surreal Spatial AI group is seeking exceptional research scientists to build machine perception technology allowing AI agents and systems to perceive and understand the 3D world around them. The aim of this role is to develop, advance and integrate ML and computer vision models and SW systems for advanced, real-time machine perception for egocentric devices such as Meta\'s Project Aria, including 3D environment and object reconstruction, semantic understanding, estimation and understanding of user motion, actions and activities, and learning of predictive, causal world models for embodied AI agents and egocentric devices.


Responsibilities

  • Research, develop and prototype state of the art ML and software technology in the domains of 3D environment and object reconstruction, semantic understanding, estimation and understanding of user motion and more
  • Build/integrate real-time prototypes for advanced, real-time 3D machine perception systems as part of a fast-moving research and research engineering team
  • Collaborate with team members throughout the lifetime of a project, from prototyping to deployed products
  • Deliver research results that have a direct impact on Meta and Meta\'s AI-enabled products

Minimum Qualifications

  • Currently has or is in the process of obtaining a PhD in the field of computer vision, Machine Learning / Artificial Intelligence, robotics or equivalent
  • Track-record of state-of-the-art publications in the field and at top conferences in the field
  • Experienced in advanced 3D computer vision and ML, thorough understanding of 3D geometry fundamentals as well as state of the art ML/AI models incorporate that
  • Mathematical background and understanding of numerical optimization, linear algebra, probabilistic estimation and 3D geometry
  • 5+ years C++ experience with a mastery of modern C++ features
  • 3+ years python experience, including appropriate ML frameworks
  • Interpersonal experience: cross-group and cross-functional collaboration
  • Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment

Preferred Qualifications

  • Proven track record of achieving significant results as demonstrated by grants, fellowships, patents, as well as first-authored publications at leading workshops or conferences such as CVPR, ECCV/ICCV, ICCP, 3DV, BMVC, or SIGGRAPH.
  • Demonstrated software engineer experience via an internship, work experience, coding competitions, or widely used contributions in open source repositories (e.g. GitHub).
  • Broad understanding of the state of the art of ML and AI model architectures and training paradigms.
  • Experience working on real-time, high-performance systems in robotics, AR/VR, or other areas
  • Experience working in a Linux environment.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Machine Learning Job Applications (UK Guide)

Whether you’re applying for machine learning engineer, applied scientist, research scientist, ML Ops or data scientist roles, hiring managers scan applications quickly — often making decisions before they’ve read beyond the top third of your CV. In the competitive UK market, it’s not enough to list skills. You must send clear signals of relevance, delivery, impact, reasoning and readiness for production — and do it within the first few lines of your CV or portfolio. This guide walks you through exactly what hiring managers look for first in machine learning applications, how they evaluate CVs and portfolios, and what you can do to improve your chances of getting shortlisted at every stage — from your CV and LinkedIn profile to your cover letter and project portfolio.
