About the role

Platform-level software engineer role focused on Wearables Interfaces Engineering for Meta's wearable devices, bridging Core OS capabilities with application and experience layers, leading cross-functional system design, and defining technical direction for platform software across OS, drivers, frameworks, and applications.

Responsibilities

  • Drive platform software architecture for wearable devices, ensuring coherent integration across Core OS interfaces, frameworks, middleware, and application layers
  • Lead system-level initiatives that span OS-to-application boundaries, optimizing frameworks, system services, and applications for performance, reliability, and power efficiency
  • Own resolution of the most complex, ambiguous technical problems that span multiple components—OS interfaces, drivers, frameworks, and application software—identifying root causes and driving fixes across teams
  • Analyze and optimize platform-level performance, latency, memory usage, and power consumption across the full stack, setting org-wide standards and tooling for measurement
  • Partner with the Core OS team to define platform requirements, influence OS roadmaps, and ensure platform needs are met by underlying system capabilities
  • Establish metrics, monitoring, and reliability frameworks to maintain system health for platform software across the wearables portfolio
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Core OS, hardware, firmware, connectivity, multimedia, and product teams to align technical strategies and unblock dependencies
  • Communicate platform architecture decisions, integration strategies, and technical trade-offs clearly to stakeholders at all levels, driving alignment on direction and priorities
  • Leverage AI tools and workflows to accelerate development, improve system analysis, and scale your impact across the organization

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 10+ years of experience in systems engineering, platform software, or embedded systems development
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
  • Experience leading complex platform integration efforts across OS, frameworks, and application teams with demonstrated org-level impact
  • Expert-level understanding of platform architecture including interactions between OS (Linux/Android), system services, frameworks, and application software
  • Proficiency in C/C++ and/or Java/Kotlin with experience debugging across multiple layers of the stack
  • Experience with system-level debugging tools and methodologies (system traces, performance profilers, memory analyzers)
  • Track record of solving highly complex technical problems that span multiple systems and teams
  • Experience shipping consumer electronics or embedded devices at scale
  • Understanding of power management, thermal constraints, and performance optimization at the platform level
