Responsibilities
Design and operate the automation infrastructure for an autonomous materials discovery lab, integrating AI agents and robotic work-cells. Translate scientific workflows into production-grade software to accelerate the development of materials for wearable devices.
Requirements
Requires a Ph.D. in a relevant engineering or science field and over 6 years of experience in lab or industrial automation. Proficiency in Python and hands-on experience with robotic platforms and laboratory information management systems are essential.
Full job description
Meta Reality Labs is seeking an engineer to advance materials research capabilities for next-generation wearables hardware. In this role, you will design, build, and operate the automation backbone of an autonomous materials discovery lab — connecting AI agents, robotic work-cells, and scientific instruments into a seamless, closed-loop pipeline. Working at the intersection of lab automation, agentive AI, and computational materials science, this role translates scientific workflows into production-grade software that compresses a discovery cycle from years into weeks, accelerating the development of novel materials for next-generation wearable devices and robotics.
Responsibilities
Define the long-term technical roadmap for laboratory automation systems, integrating robotic sample handling, automated metrology instruments, and data acquisition pipelines
Architect and own the end-to-end automation infrastructure for high-throughput materials characterization workflows, including optical, mechanical, and electrical property testing of wearable device materials
Collaborate with scientists, hardware engineers, and product teams to translate experiments and lab workflows into clear integration specifications, data models, and scalable automation solutions
Work with integrators and vendors to design, build, and commission automated workcells for materials R&D (process development, characterization, property testing, etc.)
Build and maintain middleware services that connect instruments, robots, and sensors to laboratory information management systems
Develop instrument drivers and automation scripts that generate command sequences and invoke vendor APIs/SDKs to orchestrate lab workflows end-to-end
Collaborate with AI and data scientists to tightly integrate the autonomous lab with LLM-based multi-agent systems for experiment planning, analysis, and decision-making
Design and implement data pipelines that capture, validate, and store experimental metadata to ensure data integrity and reproducibility across the discovery pipeline
Evaluate and benchmark automation performance — measuring throughput, reliability, error rates, and turnaround time of automated experimental workflows
Contribute to internal tooling, documentation, and best practices that enable the broader team to leverage automation capabilities
Drive the adoption of design-of-experiments methodologies and statistical process control within automated materials screening workflows
Define standards and best practices for automation system reliability, calibration, and data integrity across the materials research organization
Provide technical guidance to other engineers on automation architecture decisions, instrumentation integration patterns, and software design for laboratory systems
Evaluate and integrate emerging laboratory automation technologies, robotics platforms, and scientific instrumentation relevant to materials research
Minimum Qualifications
Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Control Engineering, Materials Science, or relevant field, and/or equivalent practical experience
6+ years of experience in lab automation, systems integration, or industrial automation software and/or relevant technical experience
Proficiency in Python, with experience writing production-quality automation and integration code
Experience with laboratory information management systems, electronic lab notebooks, or manufacturing execution systems
Demonstrated ability to translate scientific or manufacturing workflows into reliable, automated processes
Experience architecting scalable automation platforms for materials characterization or physical science research environments
Experience with statistical analysis and data pipeline design for high-throughput experimental datasets
Preferred Qualifications
A track record of commissioning or bringing up complex lab, pilot, or manufacturing equipment
Familiarity with APIs, databases, and enterprise software integration patterns
Experience defining automation strategy and technical standards at an organizational level within a research or advanced hardware development environment
Familiarity with computational chemistry or materials science tools (DFT, MD, LAMMPS, ASE) and high-performance computing (HPC) environments
Experience with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), knowledge graphs, or scientific literature mining in the context of lab systems
Publications or demonstrated accomplishments recognized in the field of laboratory automation or materials informatics
Experience with materials relevant to wearables hardware, such as optical coatings, waveguide materials, display substrates, or flexible electronics
Experience integrating robotic platforms with laboratory information management systems (LIMS) or material databases
Experience integrating AI/ML models or LLM-based agent frameworks into physical lab workflows
Experience with data historians, or real-time supervisory dashboards
Knowledge of industrial communication protocols
Familiarity with design-of-experiments frameworks and machine learning approaches applied to accelerated materials discovery
$184,000/year to $257,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits
