$65-$71 per hour Redmond, WA Contract **Level III = 5-7 years of experience.** **Reality Labs brings together a world-class team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create the future of virtual and augmented reality, which together will become as universal and essential as smartphones and personal computers are today. And just as personal computers have done over the past 45 years, AR and VR will ultimately change everything about how we work, play, and connect. We are developing all the technologies needed to enable breakthrough AR glasses and VR headsets, including optics and displays, computer vision, audio, graphics, brain-computer interface, haptic interaction, eye/hand/face/body tracking, perception science, and true telepresence. Some of those will advance much faster than others, but they all need to happen to enable AR and VR devices that are so compelling they become an integral part of our lives. Beyond working within current paradigms to realize our vision, Reality Labs is heavily invested in materials research and development at the fundamental level. This involves, but is not limited to, designing and characterizing materials yet to be discovered, for highly specific applications.** **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 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 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 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 product development. **Minimum Qualifications:** + PhD or Masters in Physics, Chemistry, Optical Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or relevant technical field. + Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment. + Experience programming hardware interfaces (e.g., serial/I2C/SPI communication, DAQ systems, motion control) using Python, LabVIEW, C, or similar languages. + 2 years experience in at least one of the following areas: chemistry, materials, organic materials, crystallization, nucleation, solid state analysis, optoelectronic materials. + 2 years experience, experimental laboratory work (i.e., demonstrated ability to take concepts, adapt them and translate them to the bench-top). **Preferred Qualifications:** + Proven track record of achieving significant results as demonstrated by grants, fellowships, patents, as well as first-authored publications at relevant high-impact journals. + Experience with solid-state analysis: e.g. diffuse reflectance, XRD, spectroscopy, DSC, optical microscopy. + Experience with crystallographic software (e.g. CCDC suite, BGMN, Profex, Olex2). + Experience with HPLC, LC-MS, UV/Vis and/or GC. + Experience working and communicating cross functionally in a team environment. + Experience with crystal growth and related concepts (e.g. supersaturation, nucleation, etc.). + PhD or Masters in Physics, Chemistry, Optical Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or relevant technical field. Pursuant to the California Fair Chance Act, Los Angeles County Fair Chance Ordinance for Employers, Los Angeles Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance, and San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, qualified applicants will be considered for assignment with arrest and conviction records. Criminal history may have a direct, adverse, and negative relationship with some of the material job duties of this position. These include the duties and responsibilities listed above, as well as the abilities to adhere to company policies, exercise sound judgment, effectively manage stress and work safely and respectfully with others, exhibit trustworthiness, meet client expectations, standards, and accompanying requirements, and safeguard business operations and company reputation. **About US Tech Solutions:** US Tech Solutions is a global staff augmentation firm providing a wide range of talent on-demand and total workforce solutions.
