Research Scientist – World Models, Robotics & Embodied AI

Job description

Meta Reality Labs Research (RL Research) brings together a team of researchers and engineers with the shared goal of developing AI, Robotics, and AR/VR technology across the spectrum. The Surreal Spatial AI group is seeking Research Scientists to build machine perception, 3D generative systems, and control technology allowing robotic agents and AI systems to perceive, understand, reason about, and interact with the world around them. In this role, you will develop algorithms for predictive world modeling, active perception, and robotic interaction. You will investigate architectures that position multi-modal Generative World Models at the core of machine perception and data-driven robotic control for real-world autonomous applications. Leveraging modalities available from egocentric devices and physical robotic platforms, your work will span the full stack, translating foundational world models into action in the physical world. Responsibilities: Drive fundamental and applied research at the intersection of multi-modal generative AI, predictive world modeling, embodied reasoning, and robotic manipulation - Investigate or invent architectures that deliver a spectrum of embodied beha...
