## Description

At Meta, we're building the future of human connection and the technology that enables it. This means continuously inventing and developing technologies for the next generation of experiences. To continue our efforts in the path to AGI, and as we move closer to a future with intelligent robots and advanced AI models, we're hiring talent across a broad range of disciplines from robotics hardware to system software, machine perception, and artificial intelligence. These crucial projects and initiatives taken on by this team have never been done before, so you have a rare opportunity to help us create new ways people connect around the world.Meta Robotics Studio is seeking a System Specialist who will own the end-to-end hardware test development, integration, and execution on complex robotic systems. This role bridges hardware and software - ensuring subsystems work together reliably, defining requirements, driving cross-functional collaboration, and delivering robust, scalable solutions
for device validation and reliability testing. You will serve as a key technical liaison across engineering, manufacturing, and operations teams., 1. Architect and integrate robotic systems, subsystems, and test stations for device validation and reliability

 2. Define system-level requirements and specifications, translating customer and infrastructure partner needs into actionable product requirements
 3. Lead proof-of-concept projects to evaluate enabling technologies and subsystems
 4. build and test prototypes
 5. Develop systems architecture for robotic platforms including manipulators, sensing, controls, and network connectivity
 6. Solidify and stabilize core robot functionality - sensing, controls, uptime, and communication interfaces
 7. Drive cross-functional collaboration across hardware, software, manufacturing, and operations teams throughout the project lifecycle
 8. Actively manage issues, risks, and schedules
 9. participate in usability testing and design reviews
 10. Develop documentation, best practices, and standards for system integration
 11. Mentor and guide engineers in integration practices and systems thinking
 12. Influence technical strategy and roadmap for systems integration across the organization
