About the role

Meta is seeking an experienced engineer to design and build agentic evaluation tasks for networking and wireless systems, calibrate difficulty, verify results, and publish findings in collaboration with internal and external partners.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build task environments across wireline networking, radio access, and non-terrestrial networks
  • Write deterministic verifiers. Sources include network simulators, formal checkers such as Batfish or YANG validation, and closed-form physics such as orbit propagation and link budgets
  • Impose action budgets and hidden state so that exhaustive search does not work and the task measures diagnostic policy rather than brute force
  • Define invariants, and make any repair that breaks a previously satisfied property fail the episode
  • Calibrate difficulty by running frontier models against each task, then analyze failures to confirm they come from domain reasoning rather than ambiguity or broken grading
  • Work with research partners inside and outside the team to turn measured capability gaps into published findings

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer science, or a related field, plus five years of relevant experience
  • Production experience in at least one of: network operations and configuration, radio access systems, or satellite and aerial communications
  • Proficiency in Python, with experience building and maintaining production or research codebases, and comfort building and debugging simulation or emulation environments
  • Experience writing automated verification or test infrastructure where correctness is checked by a program, not by inspection
  • Able to reason about a system from partial telemetry and explain why one hypothesis fits the evidence better than another

Skills
