New Today

Meta is seeking a Research Engineer to join the Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) team, one of the top industrial AI research organizations in the world. Come join FAIR's efforts to build world models, learning to understand and make predictions about the physical world, especially from video, and develop efficient algorithms for world model-based planning and control. Our team is driving an ambitious agenda to train and use world models for embodied and wearable agents. We across related topics including self-supervised learning from video (e.g., joint-embedding predictive architectures/JEPAs), predictive models, model-based reinforcement learning and model-predictive control. We drive innovations across the stack, data curation, training large-scale state-of-the-art models, and designing robust benchmarks. We are looking for research engineers who share our passion for building efficient, scalable, and robust models of the world that will be part of the next paradigm of AI models.
