About the company
Meta is seeking a Research Scientist to join Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL). The position is with Fundamental AI Research (FAIR), AI research lab developing new architectures, capabilities and training paradigms to advance the frontier of AI. Researchers will drive impact by building the next generation of frontier agentic systems and products that connect billions of users, while contributing high quality code and reproducible results to the open source community. There is also an opportunity to publish state-of-the-art research. They will work with an interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and cross-functional partners, and will have access to cutting-edge technology, resources, and research facilities., Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today-beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.
