Connectivity RF Hardware Design Engineer - Sunnyvale, United States - Meta Inc

Description

As a Connectivity RF Hardware Design Engineer at Meta Reality Labs, you will develop new wireless connectivity RF systems (WiFi/BT/GNSS/UWB) for Augmented Reality (AR) products. You will work closely with product design, electrical and firmware engineers on advancing the state of AR through research and development, prototyping, and implementation in shipping products. You will own end-to-end connectivity RF hardware design from initial definition through production. You should have deep connectivity RF development experience in consumer electronics development and wireless technology along with a passion for exploration and experimentation.
