Through our family of apps and services, we're building a different kind of company that connects billions of people around the world, gives them ways to share what matters most to them, and helps bring people closer together. Whether we're creating new products or helping a small business expand its reach, people at Facebook are builders at heart. Our global teams are constantly iterating, solving problems, and working together to empower people around the world to build community and connect in meaningful ways. Together, we can help people build stronger communities - we're just getting started.At Facebook Reality Labs (FRL), our goal is to explore, innovate and design novel interfaces and hardware subsystems for the next generation of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. Graphics performance is a fundamental driver of both user interaction and form factor for every computing platform. Our team has the opportunity and responsibility to research/explore/define this for the next computing platform (XR), which has the most aggressive targets for both realism and power consumption. Fortunately, we have the resources of Facebook behind us, an amazing team of industry leading researchers and engineers, and the freedom/mandate to work across the stack however we see fit.We are looking for a skilled and motivated Silicon Digital Design and Verification Manager to join, lead, and grow our Graphics Digital Design & Design Verification Team, whose mission is to support custom silicon design for next-generation graphic processing units. You will hire and lead engineers who work well in teams, can brainstorm big ideas, work in new technology areas, are able to drive a concept into a design, and tolerate a high degree of ambiguity. You’ll be called upon to provide technical leadership towards the goals of research IP simulation & test chip development, and people management and support for your team.
