Research Scientist III

Job Description Responsibilities: The position involves designing, building and automating an established workflow for the experimental screening of organic materials. Built on current in-house processes, this will streamline data acquisition required for the development of novel optoelectronic materials. Develop next-generation optoelectronic materials with an emphasis on advanced design, fabrication, and analysis, to prove new concepts and understand the potential impact of those concepts. Collaborate with the larger Meta Reality Labs Research team to holistically understand current goals, limitations, and bottlenecks in the wider AR/VR space. Build with and develop an intimate understanding of equipment designed for high-throughput experiments. Design and automate novel crystal growth, processing, and analysis techniques, with a focus on highly specific components and devices. Communicate results internally and with external partners. Assist in the translation of research results to practical application in Meta product development.
