Ultrasound Research Scientist
Burlingame, CA
At Reality Labs Research (RL-R), our goal is to explore, innovate and design novel interfaces and hardware subsystems for the next generation of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences.
We are looking for a skilled and motivated Ultrasound Research Scientist to join our team, whose mission is to develop next-generation human-computer interfaces for AR/VR. We are specifically looking for a candidate with experience in advanced through-body ultrasound measurement methods and who can work with a team of researchers who are developing hardware to sense user input. More broadly, the chosen candidate will work with a diverse and highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities.Ultrasound Research Scientist Responsibilities
Individual pay is determined by skills, qualifications, experience, and location. Compensation details listed in this posting reflect the base salary only, and do not include bonus, equity or sales incentives, if applicable. In addition to base salary, Meta offers benefits.

- Design and execute experiments on humans and biomimicking phantoms to characterize ultrasound propagation through human tissue.
- Develop data-analysis methods and models for ultrasound propagation through human tissue.
- Design, build, and validate prototypes to enable path-finding research.
- Formulate ultrasound research strategy and direct execution.
- Work with cross-functional research and engineering partners to define system requirements and mature prototypes to increasing levels of fidelity, ranging from proof-of-concept bench-top demonstrations to wearable integrated systems.
- PhD degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering or a related field in Acoustics, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, or related fields.
- 5+ years experience with experimental and data-analysis methods to study wave propagation through human tissue including, but not limited to, ultrasound imaging, elastometry, or laser Doppler vibrometry.
- 5+ years experience with ultrasound transducers including, but not limited to, loading effects, ultrasound power estimation, coupling methods to soft tissue, or driving-signal generation.
- 5+ years experience with finite-element acoustics modeling in Ansys, Comsol, or other similar tools.
- 5+ years experience with programming languages such as MATLAB, Python, C++, or similar.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Experience with transducer assembly design including, but not limited to, backing material, matching layer, or wedges.
- Experience with shear-wave through-body ultrasound techniques including, but not limited to, shear-wave elastography, transient elastography, or other acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI)-based imaging methods.
- Experience with mechanical design in Solid Works, AutoCAD, or other similar CAD tools.
- Experience with acoustics non-destructive evaluation.
- Experience with data analysis methods including, but not limited to, dispersion-relation estimation or surface-wave inversion used in, e.g., non-destructive evaluation, structural health monitoring, or seismology.
