About this role

AI Research Scientist —Generative AI for Materials Discovery Redmond, WA; Pasadena, CA Meta's Reality Labs Research (RL-R) brings together a team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create the future of Mixed Reality (MR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Wearable Artificial Intelligence (AI). The Materials and Systems Innovation (MSI) group within Reality Labs Research creates and accelerates breakthrough materials and device technologies that unblock the path to low-cost, all-day wearable AR devices and advanced sensing and actuating systems for robotics. We identify key technology gaps requiring step-change innovation, build AI-driven autonomous discovery pipelines to compress development timelines, leverage external partners to accelerate research, and deliver high-quality technology solutions through cross-functional, high-performing teams. In this role, you will pioneer the application of generative AI to design novel compounds and molecular crystals, directly accelerating the discovery of next-generation materials for AR/VR devices and advanced robotic systems. Working at the frontier of deep generative modeling, computational chemistry, and agentic AI, you will develop and deploy state-of-the-art models - including diffusion models, flow matching, and transformer-based architectures - that predict and generate stable crystal structures and molecular candidates with target properties. Your work will be tightly integrated into our AI-driven autonomous discovery platform, collaborating with computational chemists and AI agent scientists to close the loop from molecular design to experimental validation. Together, we are going to build advanced prototypes, technologies, and toolsets that can advance how people interact with their surroundings. We invite you to join us as we work to bring these technologies from
