**Summary:**

At Reality Labs we aim to bring together the brightest cross-disciplinary minds in one place to deliver on our mission: build tools that help people feel connected, anytime, anywhere. The Devices Sustainability Team is responsible for gathering data to understand our carbon impact, defining leading-edge criteria, and influencing hardware design to reduce carbon emissions in alignment with Meta’s 2030 Net Zero Commitment. As a Lead Systems Engineer focused on leading Devices sustainability efforts, you will take a critical role in influencing system design of VR, AR, and New Technology Initiatives to drive carbon reduction. You will influence teams developing product concepts through prototyping and validation for consumer electronics. You are someone who works well in teams, can brainstorm big ideas, work in new technology areas, thrive in ambiguity, and envision opportunities for carbon reduction during system architecture. Our ideal candidate has strong electrical engineering fundamentals, excellent technical understanding of consumer electronics across the stack, and experience implementing sustainability Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) tools.
