Employer

Job Description

The XR Audio team at Meta is helping people around the world come together and connect through world-class Augmented and Virtual Reality hardware and software. We are developing the future of AR and VR, bringing products to consumers that transform entertainment and social experiences.These roles are focused on developing the next generation of speech and audio enhancement algorithms for wearables in various acoustic environments. Our team is a multi-disciplinary group with expertise in digital signal processing, machine learning, wireless systems, software architecture and distributed systems, and simulation / modeling, sound synthesis, music, audio and speech compression, and much more.This internship's length is twelve (12) to sixteen (16) weeks long. This team is looking for Summer intern specifically.

Software Engineer Intern, Future Audio Systems Responsibilities:

  • Simulation tools for a real-time, distributed audio system encompassing two wireless computing platforms. Modeling will involve traditional signal processing building blocks (codecs, sample rate conversion, telecommunication processors) and fault modeling (network impairments, delay, loss, metadata communication).
  • Modeling asynchronous / event-based systems
  • Simulation of multirate systems in the audio domain
  • Wireless Audio Communication (codecs, sample-rate-conversion)
  • DSP, Signal Processing, Audio / Speech / Video Systems

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a Masters or a PhD degree in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering or Mathematics or Physics.
  • Proven track record of delivering complex software systems
  • Proficiency in data structures and algorithms
  • Experience with Python/Matlab and C/C++ OR any of modern programing languages
  • Must obtain work authorization in country of employment at the time of hire, and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Familiarity with more than 2 areas: Asynchronous event driven system modeling and tools: e.g. SimPy (Python), Simulink (MATLAB) Bluetooth or WIFI Wireless Stack Speech and Audio Compression standards
  • Experience in signal processing skills (filtering, sample rate convertors)
  • Demonstrated software engineering experience related to Data Structures and Algorithms or Multi-threading or Distributed Systems via an internship, work experience, coding competitions, open source contributions, or research
  • Experience working and communicating cross functionally in a team environment
  • Intent to return to a degree-program after the completion of the internship/co-op.
